Buy International Edition Books and Save Money each Semester

Dec. 15, 2011 - PRLog -- International edition textbooks and Economy edition books are printed outside US for use at universities and colleges abroad.  These books are usually not hardcover, but paperback. Most international edition textbooks are printed in Singapore, China or India. International edition textbooks often have disclaimers such as: “Not for sale in US or CANADA” , “Authorized of use in Asian Sub Continent Only”. But it is perfectly legal to buy international edition textbooks.

International Edition textbooks usually have exactly same content page to page, but may have different cover and ISBN number. Also these international edition books may be printed on poor paper quality. College bookstores may not have these but are common in online bookstores. http://www.AffordTextbooks.com offers a wide selection of international edition books for all major college subject textbooks.

Sometimes units used in International Edition textbooks may be in SI UNITS and not ENGLISH UNITS, sometimes currency may be different. Just confirm with the book seller than there is no different from the US edition book prior to buying.
When ordering books or textbooks online, especially international edition shop ahead of time.  Some booksellers may ship international edition textbooks directly from international location. You should usually get a book within 5-8 business days, but it may take longer if the shipping location is outside the US. Many international booksellers may not ship to Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico.
