I costed out my books for one semester (paramedic school), at the school bookstore, and the cost was over $1,000. Via Amazon, the cost was half that. SO worth it.

I understand what you mean. i usually buy all of my books used. But for A and P I wanted new because I am keeping them, I am not selling those back.

Amazon will also buy used books back at a good price. And return are easy, they took back all the books I didn't need at the full price I paid for them.
