Is it safe to buy used college textbooks off of ebay? Does anyone have any personal experience with this? I can go to stores near my college and buy used books but those prices are still really high, actually they're close to the new price. So is it worth it to buy off of ebay? Do college students generally take good care of their textbooks? I feel like that last question's answer is a no.

Should I buy new or used textbooks for college? I know I can save money by purchasing used textbooks, which is fine with me, but what about old highlights and annotations? What if the previous owner failed the course? Should I just pony up and buy the new book so I can start fresh? I'm leaning toward buying new, but I wanted to get someone else's opinion. By the way, I am 35 years old, and I start my first year of college in January.
Donating Used College Textbooks? I was interested in donating several college textbooks is subjects such as nursing, science and software engineering. These books are in good to very good condition, but the campus bookstore would not buy them back for one reason or another. (usually because they changed to a new edition) A few have some high lighting but aside from that the pages are very clean and the covers are in good condition as well. I live in Florida and I can't seem to find any location in Florida that accepts used textbook donations.

Can I buy used college textbooks OTHER THAN my campus store or online websites? I just started college and its a hard adjustment. I'm not used to having to buy my own textbooks and I just found out last minute the list of books I need. My professors are giving me until next week to get all the books. So I was wondering, is it possible to buy college textbooks at bookstores such as Barnes and Nobles (not the online one) or other places? And if there are other bookstores, can you please list them? I would buy it at Amazon.com or Half.com, but I'm scared they might not come in time since it takes a while, and I would do rush-delivery, but rush-delivery in many of those sites is 2-3 business days, and with the weekend coming up, I know it's too late. Also, I was able to buy some used textbooks from my campus, but not all of them. They ran out of many used books and are overpricing the new books. I also asked my friends who are sophomores if they still had their textbooks, but they all sold them off. If worse comes to worse, I guess I'll just buy from my school, despite the price. If anyone has any suggestions on what I should do, or any reliable, cheap bookstores that sell textbooks, please let me know as soon as possible. Thanks to all those who answer! And next time, I'll make sure to order my textbooks early (before the semister starts if possible).

Where is a good place to sell a used college textbook? My daughter barely used the textbook it is new condition, if we sell it to the college bookstore they will only give us about half of the purchase price. I would like more than that for it.

Sell used college textbooks online or at the bookstore? I got a bunch of used textbooks that I can either sell online or at the bookstore...what should I do? Here's the thing: my textbooks are in great shape and my ratings on all the sites I go to are all good. The issue is that I will be forced to compete with other prices that other users are selling the same book for and I won't be getting much money and the shipping fee will also add on to the issue. Sometimes the buyer buys the book based on price AND the book's quality and the seller's rating but I will still have competition regardless. If I go to the bookstore, there's basically no competition but I don't know if they will buy my book at a cheaper/higher price than that of online buyers. Any advice?
I bought a used college textbook from an amazon bookstore and they sent me the wrong one? THEN I called them and they sent me the right one. This was about 2 months ago. I never sent the wrong one back. The owner of the book told me when I called to get the right one that I'd need to send the other back. I meant to, but have just kept putting it off. He never charged my card and its been almost two months!? Will he charge it or forget about it?
