Title: Where to buy books/second hand books
Post by: BambooPanda on February 06, 2013, 11:40:50 pm
Hey guys,
Just wondering where is best to get new books for the cheapest price. I'm doing commerce and most of my books also have a online activities/support program. Does a secondhand book key still let me access the online stuff? So far I've been on a few book websites and the coop website but the prices are pretty similar. Is any experienced UoM student willing to share their knowledge of secret locations where its cheap books (cheap being second hand books or a prices lower coop).

Well, I got mine from textbookexchange, and they've been pretty good. Normally the same person would have quite a few books if you were in the same course, and you could probably get a discount if you get all the books off them. Some keys are only for 1 year, so maybe a second hand one wouldn't work. But some textbooks come with CD's which should be fine.
