Worth trying a (free) 'wanted' post on Freecycle - list of Scottish groups here:http://uk.freecycle.org/region/Scotland
Free to list, all items listed/offered are free.0 -
You have probably already thought of it but I would say Ebay is worth a try. I recently bidded on a book on the history of art from a seller unloading several books purchased for her Open University course!0

Quite often http://www.bookbutler.co.uk/ can be a useful comparative site to find cheap books, but also check amazon marketplace.0

Hi, MisterPym... Scots Law, especially introductory Scots Law by Wyllie and Crossan or anything in the same vein.0 -
Recycling everything as possible is rly important to MSE. I brought some used textbooks from usedbooksearch.com last year at a good price. Those books were almost as new.Men talk of killing time, while time quietly kills them.
