As a final year uni student, I rarely bought textbooks cos I know it will be rarely used.. however, there's one subject that will allow me to open the textbook during the exam.
That's why I decided to buy this textbook.
When I tried to look for it in University bookshop, it was really really expensive $120+, but I know the trick to buy cheap textbook and that is to look it up in the internet and buy it from Asia.
so i went to AbeBooks and looked my book up and when I found it, it's only $50!!! (including the shipping and my credit card currency exchange fee).
The book I bought, was printed in Singapore, came from Malaysia. Though the one in uni bookstore is hard cover, the one I bought is soft cover, but overall it's awesome.
I ordered a book from AbeBooks as they had the best price according to a search on Booko.
Their website was easy to use and ordering was simple. The book arrived within a reasonable time frame given the distance it travelled and it was very well packaged, particularly given the size and heft of the book.
This was a very positive experience with AbeBooks and I would order from them again.
I've recently enrolled in a new course at uni which has six books on the reading list plus a short story!! This is a huge amount of books to source at once, but I managed to find them all at ABE books, and it cost me under $65.
If you don't mind books in 'average' quality, you can find the books you need for between $3-10 apiece, and this is especially true of common titles, such as the gothic titles I needed (inc. the incredibly common Mary Shelley's Frankenstein and also Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde).
One note, as a lot of books come from the UK, it does take time for them to arrive. If you need something for a certain date it is important to order ahead of time.
