Though the books aren't always in mint condition, the discounted prices may be worth considering. But the Smart College Students Buy Textbooks Cheap: http://www.missiontuition.com/smart-college-students-buy-textbooks-cheap/ Used books can save a student $10-50, or more in some cases. dumbgirl Posted at 7:35 am on Aug. 14, 2007 Quote: from DESKPOWER at 9:55 am on Aug. 14, 2007 there is no UK version Unfortunately, as a previous poster stated, there is no UK version. It sucks, but I couldn't refrain from posting for that reason alone... If it helped just one person save money this year, it served it's purpose. Maybe if people start emailing ebay about a UK version, they'll get the picture.
