I haven't went to any actual book places yet, just random websites to check prices. I barely even touched the book, and the only reason I'm selling it is because a dude offered to sell me a book I need for $20 instead of making myself pay $400 for it.
That makes sense and ouch. $400 book?

P.S. College life was much easier 8 years ago because I didn't have to waste money on books I wouldn't use to work on cars.
What else are you going to put your monitor on top of if not $1000 worth of textbooks?

Only other place I can think of is to list them on amazon, or try maybe selling to half price book store if it's in the area.

I ran into the same problems with trying to get rid of some of my college books. Do any of your books have like access codes or things like that? I have found those especially bring down the 'worth' cost.

It's so annoying trying to sell certain college books. Especially when you've dropped a pretty penny on them.
You might try AbeBooks? ( I've no idea what they pay. )

Oh....
you've solved the mystery of my chronic illnesses...
hey, i offered to play doctor with you to fix that! :p lol

Can I suggest Shokugeki no Souma (Food Wars) then? Or would literal food orgasms be too much for @turker?
that is a good anime, had me laughing at times

Did anyone else get a rejection from the surgery preferences survey from the other day? He left feedback saying I didn't leave my completion code in the blank (Which I did) and that the survey information was blank (Which I completed the task completely) I emailed him so hoping for the best but I didn't expect that to get rejected.
for fucks sake, i JUST refreshed my page and i go the same bullshit rejection. there is *NO* way i turned in a blank survey *AND* no code

"There was no data provided and the survey was blank, therefore we cannot use your work. Thank you for attempting to take the survey"

Yep. Apparently the IT course is the most expensive course this place offers.
As strange as it is. I hate buying IT course books. One of my professors this past semester had an whole entire course material rechange, and if I hadn't been paying attention to her updates on the syllabus, I would have wasted so much money. I found the book used for like $6 on amazon. Compared to what they wanted me to pay on campus. I was so, so happy.

TO is bombed hard, sounds like the req had a massive fail on their end on the dataform (or they are trying to scam everyone)
