I do not believe that Staples carries them. Maybe a bookstore at another local college that is open on Saturday?

What about a Barnes & Noble?

It really depends on the ISBN on the back. If the ISBN matches what the bookstore buyback wants, then they’ll take it. If it doesn’t match, they wont take it, regardless it has the same title and edition. Many texts sold by discounters online are international editions which have identical content but different ISBN’s. Do make sure you are getting the correct version/edition as there can be radical differences, i.e. 4th edition is NOT acceptable to get when your curriculum calls for the 5th edition. Additionally, when buying online make sure it will be delivered in a timely manner. A lot of sellers use media mail which can take over a month to reach you. In general, get your books online far in advance to avoid any issues. Note that many colleges these days put their books into “bundles” which means there might be a solution manual or some other material in the textbook package and that entire package has its own unique ISBN. As for how often a textbook needed, it really depends. Usually for sciences, the text will be used very heavily, however.
