Where to find cheap used nursing books?

Okay. So how to save money in nursing school. Cut back on your coffee and donuts? I think not:) Here are some great sites I used to find cheap used nursing books.

Now remember, you can find some great deals but were not talking 0.99 cent bargains here. Let's face it. Nursing books are expensive! The best way to find cheap or used books utilizes the internet. There's no way around the empty pockets you will have shopping for books. However, there are SMART ways to shop for books/supplies. Here are some helpful tips. When a new textbook was required, I went straight for my laptop to check out some online deals. Here's just a few:

amazon.com-Great way to sell your used nursing books as well. They take more of a percentage than ebay but when you are done w/ some of the books, you can at least get some of your money back. I bought a lot of textbooks used from this site.

ebay.com-This site is pretty good for cheap and used nursing books. You have to wait to bid but sometimes can get a great deal on a pocket book or study aide! I carried an array of study guides that I got on ebay for less than $10 each.

craigslist.com-Post an ad for wanted items. You would be suprised how many people may skim your add and give you a great deal.

http://www.cheapesttextbooks.com/used-nursing-textbooks.html-This website is again pretty good to shop/buy used textbooks. The only downfall is, the prices are comparable to amazon but with amazon, there is more reputation and you may have a better seller experience.

gettextbooks.com

http://www.ecampus.com/nursing.asp--You may not get the best prices on these books but it will be discounted slightly and its better than the college bookstore.

What's great about buying used books, is that the books are a fraction of the price buying used. It really makes sense all the way around (for the planet too).

Unless you really want to keep a nursing book, if you are planning to sell your books, keep the turnaround time quick since books change. After you are done using the book, list it on amazon to get the most money back.

Please feel free to add any tips/advice that you find would be helpful.
