"They were recovered at the end of the semester and charges were dropped as it was only $50 worth of textbooks."

I do not miss the cost of books while going to college.
MadMike75
And they were returned for $13
OneTacoPlease
Lmao
Indyofthedead
Why? I mean, the most he could have made from selling stolen textbooks was probably $10
bunfukr
Just bought books: pay $160 for just the online access, or $170 for access PLUS the entire book in paper.

Books?? You mean book as in singular right?
MilesTheBaker
Am I the only one. Or does he look like an older markipliar?
CayCatty
His face just says "Can you blame me?"
tonightiknow8
That looks like a fatter Markiplier

As more and more people are screwed over, can’t we get some of them elected so they can do something about this?

We have to wait for the boomers to die off before we get any of our problems addressed... well... we don't HAVE to wait.

Give it a couple months and he will only have stolen 15 bucks worth

Police have returned the one book back to the bookstore.

If you all understand the education cost issues are SUPPLY CHAIN based, you'll see how much we are being screwed. Govt loans actually...

Shout out to my profs who put that shit online!
MrRandom314159
... That's still about 130. An average shitty car can hold that much.
micronoodles
I blame Saved by the Bell. Heh
ValMorghulis
$500 for a mandatory art book we never even used in the class. Turned out my professor was the author.
Lumari
I hope he uploaded them all online for free. Real hero
ProbablyPoe
Hope he didn't take them out of their packaging
Psionickitten
It's be better for him if he did. He'd probably be able to argue it's not a felony but a lesser crime due to the price of the books.
Doridan
He can keep the books, just give back the online codes.
HodgeNPodge
I wonder if he was giving them away for free or just selling them $0.99 cheaper.
InsomniaOlympic
I see these horror pricing stories all the time, but my uni has txt rental. I've paid $30 in all 8 years and have had tons of books 1/2
InsomniaOlympic
I wish more places would do that. Ours even has buy out when books get replaced. It's $20 all you can carry. I have a shelf full 2/2
PizzaStation
The worst I ever had was a professor who wrote the textbook and included tear out worksheets so you couldn't sell it back/buy used.
nyavanya
Oh man, I had a couple of those too. They were upper level chem. classes, so I get it, but it was kinda frustrating...
Drakenborn
Penn State can go fuck itself with it's bullshit: Had to pay $275 upfront for a "book", that when they brought it from the back room was 1/3
Drakenborn
literally a big stack of BLANK Powerpoint slides wrapped in plastic. They weren't even fuck bound together, had to get a binder for them 2/3
Drakenborn
and they were blank so we could "take notes." Of course you couldn't sell it back and no returns. What a fucking scam
Allanonshea1
i had a professor who made his own and sold it for like ten bucks he was amaaaazing
PizzaStation
I did have one like that too. You could buy a printed copy for a few dollars, or he would send you a free pdf
Skywalker2416
For real though, that’s like 800 books, at best. Still bullshit. Especially considering last years doesn’t work because bullshit. Most times
MrRandom314159
What classes do you take where the college textbooks are $25? They average around $150.
Skywalker2416
Shit. Got my math wrong. I went from 200k. Was assuming 250/per. Whoops
ImmaLuigi
Damnit, Markiplier. We talked about this.

Awe they do :(
JackOfAllTirades
To add salt to the wound: they’re still charging $100+ for TI-83 calculators.
Cheomesh
LOL.
macandcheese21
That’s not the store’s fault. Those calculators are expensive
JackOfAllTirades
Nope. The TI-83 was released in 1996. 20+ year old tech not even halving their original cost? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moore%27s_law
JackOfAllTirades
I get it may not be the STORE’S fault, as stores reflect their price based the wholesale, but this means someone is overcharging THEM.
