Ok, I ordered a SAT II prep book for my english class that has bunch of vocab words in it. I ordered it on half.com on Thursday afternoon because I was too cheap to buy it at school and I found it much cheaper online.

Half.com website was screwed up so that confirmation emails didn't get sent until saturday night. I was hoping to get these books by Monday afternoon, but since it was delayed for two days, I won't have them.

I need to memorize and do assignments in that book. It is due on Thursday and I have sh**load to do now that I'm behind. WTF am I going to do? I already asked some of my classmates but they said they need to use the book or whatever. :(

You can only copy so many pages.... I need the entire book basically. I am already going to lose points by not bringing the book into class.

i hope you had "expedited shipping". media mail, for half of the stuff i got from half.com, took forever. i also hate half.com for charging ridiculous rates for selling books (its like, 5 billion times more expensive than ebay).

No. :( I did media mail because the sellers didn't have expedited shipping as an option (the lowest priced book). I know I screwed up! I'm cheaper then RossMAN.

Buy a copy from the bookstore, and later, return the copy you bought online at the same book store.

Buy the books then return it later.

Borrow it from the library.

Beg your teacher for mercy and look at a friend's book.
