When I was in college I purchased second hand books because they're cheaper and I also sell my books after using them in school. I only buy new books if they are not available in second hand stalls.

 

[Starmix]

Ye, when there was a booksale in the university and in the mall.

 

[AruneBend]

yes sure I did not bought them more like I borowed them from the libery

 

[Hate2Wait]

I have always got new books and have borrowed books a few times from my college library

 

[Stardom22]

For me my parents and l had no time to go to the streets to look for the old books to read. We walked in bookshops and purchase new books.

 

[Springtime]

Yes, when I was studying in college, I always buy second hand or used books. They are cheaper and I see no reason to buy new books.

 

[Stardom22]

When l was in school l would use any book be it new or old as l was only interested in the content it holds.

Yes, in college I used to buy materials or books from outgoing students as it would be a lot cheaper

When I was in college and university, I frequently bought used books to save money. I have also bought second hand literary books

 

[Stardom22]

The second hand and used text books are relatively cheaper because they have already been used.

 

[Shavkat]

During my university days, I learned how to save money. I usually buy second-hand textbooks in thrift shops. There is nothing to be frugal with this matter. These books have the same content and can be learned.

Yes I have made a few purchases before. A friend of mine had a book I needed for an exam, so he offered to sell it to me, since he was the only one with access to the book I needed, I bought it.

 

[King Belieal]

In my college days, some books that I needed to use were so expensive and I couldn't afford them. Used to buy them second hand from senior colleagues.

 

[freelancermaria]

Yes, I did it during my college years. Buying used books is more economical. As soon as I had used them, I donated them to one of our neighbors.

While at school, I remember my parents used to buy second hand books from those who kept them well. Our books were also sold.

 

[SHAHID987]

In my student life when we used to rich enough to always buy new books and honestly speaking the prices were also low. But nowadays we mostly purchase second hand books.

 

[Stardom22]

The text books whether new or used, the information in those books is the same.

 

[You]

Absolutely, I used to buy second hand books, especially for academic purposes. Not only is it much more affordable than purchasing brand new copies, but used books already have that perfectly broken in feeling.

 

[Sanjeev]

Yes, I have purchased second hand books in school, they can be bought in half the rates you get for the new books.
