Why is it that everytime I go to the School Book Store to sell back a book, I get turned away.  Is there a conspiracy to squeeze every little dollar out of us students?  I just bought this book last quarter and they told me that there is a new edition and the old one is obsolete.  I compared the two editions, and the only difference is that the new edition has a few more pictures.  I’m starting to feel like this whole school thing is just a big scam.  I went online last weekend and sold my book at collegebooktrade.org in 2 days, and got about 75% of my money back on it.  I’m going to list the rest of these books that I’ve got lying around here this weekend. 

Sincerely,

Frustrated Amy
