That is the question!With buyback coming back around due to the end of the semester, many of you may be contemplating the value of that book you paid $100 for. Should you sell it back for some spare cash, or keep it for future reference?
Well, Rosa Hernandez told the Grunion Gazette they typically give about 55% of the original value back for the book. This would mean $55 for that $100 book, not bad, except there may be a few alternatives that most do not consider.
Half.com, Bucks4books.com, and Amazon.com are all options that, if you do not mind the extra work, may give you a bit more than 55%.
Dasche Foley, business senior, says, "I have tried many of the ways, from craigslist to amazon, but the one on campus is so much easier and less of a hassle"
If all of these sound unappealing, other options to consider for next year are ebooks, which are cheaper from the get go, or Chegg.com book rental service. These will be cheaper from the start, and you won't have to deal with the issue at the end of the year.
