Dang, good idea. Gonna have to try that

I had two books that I used last semester that my school book store wouldn't buy back and sold them on ebay for $25 each. Better than nothing.
That's just wrong. If my school had such a book, I'd surely grab some books out of it, but only to read on the side. Then I'd throw 'em back when I was done.

Like mentioned above, those books could be going elsewhere, for people that *need* them
