BookFinder.com's massive inventory of 125 million new, used and international titles helps college textbook buyers save big by locating the best prices on textbooks.

College students are spending upwards of $1,000 on textbooks every school year. There are substantial savings available by skipping the monopoly bookstores to compare prices across multiple marketplaces. BookFinder.com's comparison shopping website links to an enormous network of over 100,000 booksellers in 58 countries, from giants to indies. Students order directly from the bookseller of their choice, without any fees or markup.

"I can't believe how much students are having to pay this year," says BookFinder.com founder Anirvan Chatterjee. Chatterjee, 30, developed the original search technology in 1997 as a class project at the University of California, Berkeley.

"We checked prices for a typical UC Berkeley first semester course list: Biology 1, Political Science 2, Chemistry 4A, and History 7A. At the campus discount bookstore, a student would spend $517 to buy books for those four courses (or $635 buying only new books). On BookFinder.com, those books are available for just $272.45, including shipping. That's a real-life savings of $244.55, or 47%."

Buying an international edition of the main biology textbook via BookFinder.com would have saved students a whopping $112.25, or 72%. The three texts for the political science class cost $61.75 at the campus discount store, but just $14.67 on BookFinder.com, a savings of $47.08, or 76%.

BookFinder.com (http://www.bookfinder.com/textbooks/) is the best way to buy college textbooks:

-- 125 million books for sale

-- compare textbook prices with the cost of shipping and handling built-in

-- textbooks have condition descriptions, to help pick out the best copy

-- extensive reach, as the best-known book shopping sites aren't always the cheapest

-- find international edition textbooks

Since 1997, BookFinder.com has been one of the best ways to find and buy books online. The one-stop ecommerce search engine has an inventory of over 125 million books available for sale from a network of over 100,000 booksellers from 58 countries, making it the world's largest searchable book inventory available anywhere, online or off.
