Have you worked with the schools bookstores as well to include their prices? I work for the Coursebooks section at my schools bookstore and we provide price comparisons on our own website and have 4 different ways to save money.

I just tend to think that sites like yours are adding to the inflation of books, it reminds me a lot of health insurance, in that those who can afford the books will end up paying more than those who go through a third party, or friends.

There's been over a 1000% increase in books over the past 4 decades. Where do you get your textbooks data? And do you provide textbooks or just a comparison?

In your experience has a bookstore allowed price matching? I know our policy is limited to only Barnes and Noble and Amazon stocks. The reason being that some prices are based off a third party vendor whose methods of book retrieval is speculative, so we must only honor legitimate companies. When comparing prices is this considered?
