Check out this great video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pVENWl8uBeg

OMG! That video is so cheesy and lame. I can't imagine anyone who would want to go there based on that video.

Anyway, back on topic, it wouldn't surprise me a bit that colleges will MAKE students buy books through THEIR bookstores and and you'll automatically fail that class if you buy your books anywhere else. Wouldn't surprise me a bit. Greedy bastards.

I seriously have no idea why people buy books at the bookstore. Every semester I take my schedule to the bookstore, write down all the ISBN numbers then go buy them on amazon.com. Total this semester came out to $450+ at the bookstore, on amazon I got them all for roughly $180.

I actually just listed 12 old textbooks (some from 4 semesters ago) on amazon yesterday to see what I would get for them, and as of right now I have sold 8 for $394!!!!! Freakin' awesome!
