Answer 5

Laurelwood Books.  Bluemont, VA, (they mail).

540-554-2670, and they have a website.

Answer 6

I got all of my books used and in nearly new condition on Amazon.com. Just look up the publisher's website to decide what specific texts you want, and then search the titles on amazon and see if it's available used, or at a reasonable new price. We got 10 textbooks this year in new condition for less than $200. Considering a new textbook runs somewhere between $40 to $80, ten high quality, highschool texts for less than $200 is a steal. And I even had money left over in the budget parents set for me to get a new robotics kit to use in my computer science class too!

Answer 11

Here is a site that hasn't been mentioned:

http://homeschoolbuy.com/

It's from The Old Schoolhouse Magazine.

Also, the Homeschool Buyers Co-op has a free classified section:

http://www.homeschoolbuyersco-op.org/

It's free to join the co-op and they have some AWESOME deals!

I get a lot of currriculum items from PaperbackSwap.com and now educational DVD's from SwapADVD.com:

http://www.paperbackswap.com

http://www.swapadvd.com

I love those sites, and the other sister site, SwapACD.

You can get way more than just paperbacks on PaperbackSwap!  The HS'ing area of the community forum is very active also, and many times "off list" transactions are made there for curricula.
