What is a good website to buy cheap college books? and fast!?

Does anyone know of any websites that I can buy my course books on? for cheap? besides ebay and craigslist. my college bookstore only gives me the title and author name and a shitty picture of the books. This is my first year in college and I need help! I don't know like what reasonable prices are for books and since I'm now paying for my own tuition unemployed with little savings I really need to buy them cheap. Any help would be great :)What is a good website to buy cheap college books? and fast!?
I buy mine on amazon used. Always double check that the edition is the same as the one the professor requires. You can expedite the shipping if you need to get the books in 1-2 days. Also check the buyer, whether they have expedited shipping available if necessary, and what kinds of ratings they've gotten.



For books you don't want to keep, you can rent books online. Chegg.com is one of those sites. I have had some friends who did it and recommended it, but I haven't personally tried it.

Frankly, Amazon is probably your best bet. You can usually get them on there for a decent discount new, and they also list used books from private sellers. And they give you a picture of the book so you can match the edition with the one your college is selling. I got a $150 text book on there for $17 a few months ago - fantastic condition.What is a good website to buy cheap college books? and fast!?
Best priced college books come from http://www.bookmallonline.com
Why don't you just rent your textbooks? You'll be saving more in the long run. I rent my books here: http://books.momlot.com



What I like about this service is that it cost less than $10 a month. The books are delivered to you and you can keep it as long as you want. Shipping's free both ways. And if you really want to keep the book, you can just buy them for cheap.



Don't get stressed out too much! Good luck!
