The price of obtaining an education has skyrocketed! One of the most shocking experiences for the new student it finding out how expensive books will be for required classes. Of course the college bookstore wants the student to think that they are the only source for college texts, however, there are many other sources. Cheap textbooks are available online and many times at a fraction of the cost charged by the campus store.
Cheap health sciences textbooks
The campus store will try to raise price of textbooks since they know students must have them for success in the classroom. They also tend to make the student think that obtaining them somewhere else would be a mistake. But the exact book is available online at a much cheaper price.

It’s not that the campus bookstores charge outrageous prices. Most of the time they are pretty reasonable. But you can definitely find cheaper textbooks online. Good post. You’re providing a very useful resource to students.
Jeffrey,
When’s the last time you purchased a science book in a campus bookstore? These days it will typically run you upwards of $150! whereas online you’d be able to find the same book (often) for half price!
I’m not sure how exactly you define “reasonable” LOL
But thanks for the comment!
You are right, college bookstores are a business and like any business their job is to make a profit. And that is the problem! The way that it worked in the old days was that the bookstores were run by the college and any profit went back to the school, this helped to lower tuition, student fees…
Today most colleges have outsourced their bookstores to be run by for profit companies who gouge the students in every way that they can and who do not profit share with the schools.
This unholly alliance between colleges and for profit private college bookstores are a recipe for ever increasing textbook costs!
