Frank of Redlands CA writes (8/17/01):
Students are being taken adavtage of by this online book store. Every time I purchase a book for a six week MBA course at University of Redlands I am forced to pay for the newest edition at the rate of $100.00. If I choose to sell the book back they only pay $10.00 on average despite their promise of 40 percent.

I and other students alike feel as though there are never used books to purchase and we are being taken advantage of unfairly. We cannot take any action against the school or the book store. Do you have any suggestions?

15 students per MBA program 20 classes one book per class 15x20x100=30k for a two year MBA program.

Might be time to organize a boycott.
