Also...on the Bookstore webpage, it will show this;

MEDICAL RADIATION SCIENCES 3M03 , Section - DAY , M. GLAZNER
Required Materials:
CCW - MEDRADSC 3M03 ABDOMINAL ULTRASONOGRAPHY III
^^^

The CCW in front of the 'book' title means custom courseware.

You should check the edition of the book. Make sure it is the third edition. That's the one titles is selling.

Yup, Jhan's got it right. Also, the ISBN should technically match if they're the same print and edition.

You can go buy them now yes, but I really really wouldn't suggest buying your books before you go to your first class

No; you usually get about half the price that you paid for it.

The ONLY time you'll get a full refund is if you bring back a NEW book and it has not been opened or damaged.

hey. just to clarify.. if you buy a used book from titles, you can get a refund back!
I've tried it. as long as you have your receipt its fine and its the same book.

you just can't refund coursewares or ew books opened from their packaging.

I've returned used books and never gotten the full price back. I had accidentally bought the wrong book and I brought it back the NEXT DAY, with receipt and I was told too bad, that I could only get half the price!

BAAAH
