F....College Textbooks

Now I thought the textbook industry was always a big FU to us students, but this takes the cake....

I took a winter class so I could graduate this May. I bought it two weeks ago for 115 dollars...ONE HUNDRED FIFTEEN DOLLARS. I finished up the class, and went to return the book today in a buyback, so that they could have the book since I had no use for it anymore and they wanted to give me....

FOURTEEN DOLLARS. 14. FOURTEEN!!! I then asked how much they were selling the used copies for now, and he said 115. So I told him i'd rather have it sit on my shelf and rot than you guys make 100 dolalrs off me.

Unreal.
