Textbooks

I have neither the drive nor the skill to add such a section, but the grey market is growing considerably for textbooks in the US. Quite often, here, companies release a copy of a textbook for $100 to $300, but also release the same exact book in other regions (India, China, etc) in softcover with a considerably smaller price tag ($25-$50). A quick Ebay search many major textbooks reveals a lot of softcover versions selling "new" for well under their retail price. The descriptions reveal that these books are from other regions. *botches a shooting star press* -- DomColosi (talk) 06:21, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

The textbook section says India book sellers will not ship book to USA. I have a grey market text book from India sitting right in front of me. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 159.178.47.245 (talk) 20:51, 10 January 2014 (UTC)
