Textbooks

Hello all,
I’m studying again this year and I need to purchase textbooks. I’ve heard of sites such as textbookexchange.com.au and abebooks.com and was wondering what people’s opinions of these sites are (if you have used them). Also, if anyone knows any good secondhand textbook stores in Sydney could you please let me know? I’d be saving heaps if I can get good secondhand books!
Thanks 🙂

    got some of mine last year from better world books
    http://www.betterworld.com they are really cheap and only cost around $4 per book delivery from the US
    some are secondhand some are new the ones i got last year were in great condition one was the past years text but still had all the same info and questions they were just numbered differently the new books question 35 would be the old ones 33 and the 36 would be 34 etc.
    its wirth a look however they do take a while to arrive so i suggest you order ASAP mine too about a month to arrive

    i also got some of http://www.thenile.com.au they are slightly cheaper than the bookroom and have free delivery
