Mucho Gusto! I love international textbooks
Save up to 90% on international edition textbooks at Biblio.com
You know those paperback editions of the same exact textbooks a couple kids in your class are carrying? Wonder what they are?? There lies the beauty of overcharging the richie rich Americans for books. In other countries, the same exact textbook sells for about the 1/3 of the price--the only difference? The stiffness of the cover...
iBiblio is a website that specializes in international editions, used and rare books, and offers a impressive textbook store built upon their existing infrastructure. iBiblio provides competitive pricing as well as a large variety of purchase options.

The fact that they partner with so many individuals and retailers enables forces those vendors to offer aggressive pricing. Additionally, they offer international versions of textbooks which can lead to even deeper discounts. Their vast network also ensures that even in situations where you feel like you have no other option than visit the campus book store (because of a book being limited release or out of print), you should always have a more affordable route with iBiblio.
iBiblio has also partnered with Chegg.com to offer textbook rentals. For more information about the textbook rental service, read my review of Chegg (link).
