Used Books?

Question

How does that work i found a really good book ive been looking for in barnes and nobles bt they dont have it they only have it used i wanna know how that works?

Like is it reliable?

Soo how does it work?

Answer 1

I buy used text books all the time from B & N. On line, they identify the quality of the book, fine, good, poor condition, and identify if there are any problems or say hi-lighting or writing in the margins.

As a rule, these 'imperfections' do not create a problem for me, and often times, I find comments helpful.  Yes, I do buy used books from B & N all the time as significant savings.

Incidentally, I am working on my doctorate, and new books are very expensive.

Answer 2

I have also bought used text books from Barnes and Noble for school. Barnes and Noble text books are very reliable but Barnes and Noble does not have the cheapest price on used books. If you go to Amazon, you can get the same quality text book for a cheaper price

Answer 3

I have not done business with them.  I buy used books at the goodwill store. Very inexpensive there.
