Why are these books pricier than others? " In general some books are more expens
ive because of the research involved and limited number of copies used in the ma
rket place," observes Bobby Brannigan, CEO and founder of Valore Books, who star
ted selling used textbooks when he was in college in the early 2000's.
I think most students know that the best way to find cheap college textbooks is
to buy online. At Valore Books, for instance, you can buy Acta Philosophorum for
$184. What's surprising, however, is that only 23% of students buy their colleg
e textbooks online.
