I was planning to use Amazon, but apparently, they only rent textbooks based on semesters. So if I rent it from them today, its due in mid-December. Considering my course runs until the end of January, that isn't going to work. The other option is to rent for two semesters, which would give me to March, but that's overkill and twice the price. Even if I wait until the beginning of November, there doesn't seem to be a "90 days from today" option. I'd end up paying the full rental fee and end up with the book for 45 days since its still due mid-December.
Looks like I'll have to rent it elsewhere. Luckily there are plenty of other options, but no free two-day shipping. Too bad Campus Book Rentals doesn't offer free shipping anymore. Not sure when that ended but it doesn't show on their site now and the checkout asks for shipping fees based on speed.
That's strange that they only do semesters, and not quarters. Some of the books have a 15-day extension, but that only gets you to early January. Do you need the book for the entire time? Like, with the business capstone, I think there was a point at which I was done with the book, and was just doing the final paper.
