Often schools will sell them at (or very close to) cost. The SFU bookstore for example is very reasonable about their prices. Furthermore you can usually find used copies at school book stores if you are quick about it. Good luck!

My older brother went to U-Vic and he bought all of his books used, but some he had to buy new due to them being outdated and not used and whatnot.

Id personally buy them new, but most people cant afford it, heh I dont think I could, but thats just my opinion.
