So I just tried to sell back 2 terms' worth of books today, because I forgot to sell Winter Term's books back last time around, and guess what? I got a whopping $22.25. Bastards. And 2 of them were old editions, so now I'm stuck with them. Maybe Smith Family will take them...

I'm seriously thinking about selling back my Gardner's Art for the Ages, since I won't be able to take Art History next fall, and the class I need in Art History isn't offered again until Fall 2002. Gardner's was an expensive book, so I'd actually get some good cash back on it. And with *my* luck, there'll probably be a new edition out by the time I need it again, so I'll have to buy an entirely new one, while being stuck with the old one. -_-; I hate this B.S. *so* much.

BTW, I'm at work, if that wasn't readily apparent. I'm rather tired and still a bit crampy, but eh, what can you do.

That whole buying new books/selling old books is one of the biggest scams ever invented by educational book publishers. Especially when they make sure to produce a 'new edition' every 6 months with just enough new material that you might actually need the updated version for your class. :-/
