Sell back to Titles and you'll come away with your ass hurting, 'cause sellback prices will nothing short of rape you. Like people said, sell to other students.

You can be like me and stand around in Titles when there are lots of people at the beginning of the year and creep the ones that look at the books that you want to sell. I originally bought the books off of Amazon for hella cheap, so I actually made $55. No exaggeration. :P

I've always found Amazon, Chapters and Indigo be the same price, if not worse. Any tips?

Older versions. Usually the difference between the previous and current versions of textbooks are quite negligible. Don't listen to profs who say that you have to get the current version--compare the two yourself. I got my chem set for $15. On Macinsiders, the usual price is something like $70, and that's without the study guide that I have in my set. So I'll eventually be making profit there, too, 'stead of losing money.
