I just want to say that I signed up for this and bought all my fall textbooks from Amazon through prime. I did compare with other textbook outlets and Amazon was in line with all of them, so for the sake of ease of use I used them for all of them.

From my school my textbooks would have cost me $1200, through Amazon about $850.

Done and done.

Thanks a ton! Great find...I'll be needing all that free shipping soon for the fall--if I get in! :)

Do you know how long this will last? I am already a Prime member so I already paid for my year. I wonder if they will give me a year extension on top of the one I already paid for?

I just signed up, and they refunded the portion for the months that I hadn't used. I LOVE Amazon! :redpinkhe

Figured it out! The confirmation email came with an attachment. Had to download it and open it with an html editor...copied and pasted the link in a new browser window.

All signed up now!

This morning I made my first Amazon Prime purchase. I ordered my Taber's Medical Dictionary. It was $40 LESS NEW than what my bookstore is charging for a USED one!

Exactly what is PRIME? I try to find textbooks on Ebay or hand me downs from previous students. Just want to know how this is better. I will be shopping for a new Davis Drug Guide for next year.
