Brand New or Secondhand Textbooks ? (1 Viewer)

[sophisticated-]

Hi. I'm probably speaking for a lot of people here when I say that I have a thing for brand new textbooks. But is it really worth it? Do you guys buy them second hand or brand new?

The few I did pick up, they were mostly secondhand. As long as they're in alright condition, there's no real difference.

2nd hand in condition is fine by me - my books usually get trashed in the end anyway.

If it's not available 2nd hand then and only then do i buy it knew. The price difference between the 2 can be quite a lot >.<"

I buy mine new because it is difficult to find secondhand textbooks around my area.

Secondhand textbooks are fine for me.
