How It Works:
here are over 37.6 million books available among dozens of bookstores and marketplaces. They suggest searching by ISBN, although you can also search by title, author, or keyword. After locating the book item you are interested in, you'll be presented with the lowest new, used, and book rental prices from the best competing online bookstores. Click on the "Buy It," "Rent It," or "Sell It" link next to best deal you want and you will be transferred directly to that vendor. *We highly recommend that you keep track of your book transactions (i.e. bookstore name, order number, date, price, and such), as we do not know whether you've either bought, rented, or sold, a book or not after you've left our web site.
Published books and book-like materials (i.e. audio book and ebooks) typically contain a unique 10 or 13 digit number, commonly referred to as an ISBN, that is assigned to each published book-like product. In an effort to assist with you finding the right book quickly, we suggest that you search by ISBN if you have it. Most professors list required textbooks and their associated ISBNs on their course syllabi.
