"Hear, now!" Thus spake mystmarimatt unto the masses. "Such is the glorious nature of English Major-dom, for books doth cost but $5 dollars on the almighty AMAZON.COM, your great lord and righteous GOD! No longer shall you be beholden to the wicked, evil prices of the sanctimonious bookstore! No, ye shall be saved, ye shall be redeemed by the love and acceptance of the almighty AMAZON.COM!"
Seriously though, as an english major, I luck out in that I really can get most of my books cheap, and really, I usually don't sell them back anyway, I just add them to my collection.
Back when I was doubling in History and English though, that was killer. I held the bookstore's record for most spent on books last spring term.
