FS: Many College Books

Hey everyone. I've decided to start a thread and sell all of my old college books (some are really old) for anyone interested. If not, I'll try Amazon. If THAT fails, then these are going in the garbage. If you need the ISBN off the book, let me know.

If anyone is interested....I will sell them all the books I have for $120 and I can meet them half-way (Newburgh, NY or so) and hand them over.

**** NOTE: All price are WITHOUT shipping ****

Here's the list and pics:

Simon & Schuster - Handbook for Writers (7th Ed.) - $10
Financial Accounting Fundamentals (2007 Ed.) - $10 - SOLD!!!
The Short Prose Reader (10th Ed.) - $5
The Economics of Public Issues (13th Ed.) - $5
Computer Concepts (7th Ed.) - $10

Um, the odds of someone using the same book for a class is pretty slim unless they went to the same school IMO.


half.com is your friend.

Not everyone needs books for class. Some people just like to learn and keep learning on their own.

I will check out that site. Thank you.

You sure you don't want any bathroom literature? ANSI C is an excellent book for the toilet adventure.

Hi, I'd like to buy the following books:

Financial Accounting Fundamentals (2007 Ed.)
Oracle 10g SQL
Database Systems (7th Instructor Ed.)

I'm one of the people who likes to read and teach myself on the side whenever I'm free. I'm taking a database class atm, and reference books are nice to have around. (Computer Science major with Business minor). Sent you a PM, thanks.

New book is $23.xx. I bought the book but never even opened it (I hate colleges, they make you buy crap they end up not using). I'm already giving you a huge break. I want to get rid of it but this isn't a fire sale...I paid money for it too you know. $10 + shipping and it's yours. You got an NY plate so shipping can't be that much.

Bump. If these aren't gone by the end of next week, I am going to burn them, throw them out, or try to give them to the library.

$20 shipped sound good? They are heavy...so it's probably going to be more than $10 shipping.

ANSI C is a programming book (C language).
