Better World Books | College Textbooks 4 Cheap!

Buying and selling, cheap and easy

If you’ve ever taken college courses, you know that textbooks can be expensive. Depending upon the type of student loan, scholarship or grant you have, the expense for these massive tomes may or may not be covered. If you don’t have any help and you’re trying to pay your own way through college, good luck.

Payday loans and other short term loans aren’t likely to help you with the bill for a full semester’s tuition, but they can make a difference when it comes to buying textbooks in a hurry. Just make sure that you’re shopping for the best deal possible. Check out a place like Better World Books.

Taking the books campuses won’t

Stephanie Elam reports for CNN that Better World Books is a solution for both those searching for discounted college textbooks and those looking to unload textbooks, particularly those school bookstores won’t buy back. Xavier Helgesen, Kreece Fuchs and Jeff Kurtzman, the team that founded Better World Books, are prepared to make your textbook buying and selling experience as painless as possible.

“We just thought, like, wow, there are all these books out there that the bookstores are just saying, ‘No, I don’t want it,’ but there’s totally value in those books,” Helgesen said. “You just gotta get them efficiently up on the Internet and then someone will buy them.” ... click here to read the rest of the article titled "Better World Books | College Textbooks 4 Cheap!"
