Honolulu journalist and grad student Kim Fassler shared her experiences buying textbooks on BookFinder.com this semester:
“As a grad student returning to school for the first time in two years, I met the textbook challenge head-on as classes started last week…[t]hat meant 12 books, including one macroeconomics and one microeconomics textbook (notoriously expensive)….I…hopped on BookFinder.com, which offered TONS of help.
She found some huge savings on BookFinder.com:
“Number of classes that required books: 4
Number of books purchased: 12
Grand total: $333.15
Total, if I purchased all new books on Amazon.com: $655.52”
She continues:
“For those students going back to school, I’d highly recommend BookFinder.com, which shows you prices from many different book sites, including Amazon, Half, AbeBooks, Alibris and Overstock. (It’s like the Kayak.com of textbook shopping.)”
Thanks, Kim. We’re working hard to offer students bigger and easier textbook savings.
