Once again i have stolen this idea off another BoS user.

In this thread, specify books you would like to sell or buy and for how much.

You can then private message or continue your conversations about buying/selling details in this thread.


I have the MATH1131 9th edition (or 7th edition) textbook that i will sell if anybody wants it.

Recommended retail price over $100. My book is one edition removed.

It is totally 100% NOT necessary, you do NOT need it.

I got a HD for the subject and didn't use it once.

Course notes are more than enough.


Edit: Me thinks i won't make a good salesman ?

Thats the Physics textbook.

You do need the physics textbook, it helps you with the Quiz's and is a very good resource.

However I'm not selling mine, I still use it as a reference.

There usually never is.

Only a few chapters here and there are switched, sometimes better font, and some extra passages here and there.

Nothing too significant

the few chapters switched between here and there can mean the difference between referencing something your lecturer said was on page x when it happens to be on page y in another edition. But this is not usually significant if its one edition different
