Being medical students we know that you want to be the most updated at what you do. We also know that you always go the extra mile for this, which means buying a whole bunch of books IN A MOMENT OF FOMO; many of WHICH you will probably read just for a week at the beginning of the year.
We want to help you cut your losses( as well as your expenses) while stopping someone from buying a brand new book when a barely used 2nd hand could cost them much less.
If you’re in the business of saving money, you probably visit the 2nd hand book store around you to get that nifty discount in exchange for some scribbled markings in those books.
WE WANT TO CUT THE MIDDLE MAN AND GIVE BOTH THE BUYER AND THE SELLER THE RIGHT PRICE FOR THEIR BOOKS.
IF YOU DON'T MIND SENIORS’ MARKING IN BOOKS OR RATHER WELCOME IT AS PREMARKED IMPS THAT YOU COULD JUST OPEN BEFORE THE EXAMS FOR A QUICK REVISION.
WE WANT TO GIVE YOU ALL THAT WHILE GETTING YOU IN TOUCH WITH A GRATIFIED SENIOR WHO COULD POSSIBLY BECOME YOUR GUIDE FOR ALL THINGS MEDICINE. (2 FOR 1)
WE STARTED THIS TO COUNTER THE HIGH PRICES WE PAY FOR DOZENS OF BOOKS OVER THE COURSE OF OUR STUDIES, ALL WHILE BOOKSTORES AND 2ND HAND RESELLERS PROFIT OFF OUR INSECURITIES. WE ALSO CARE A BIG DEAL ABOUT OUR CARBON FOOTPRINT AND WERE STUNNED AT HOW MANY BOOKS JUST GO UNATTENDED AND EVENTUALLY THROWN OUT DURING ROOM SHIFTINGS.
WE ALSO APPRECIATE THAT SOME OF YOU MAY JUST WANT TO DONATE THEIR BOOKS TO THOSE WHO REALLY NEED THEM. FOR THAT, WE'VELAUNCHED A “DONATION BOOKS LIST”
WE WILL ALSO BE LAUNCHING AN APP FOR A MUCH EASIER PROCESS BUT THAT MAY TAKE TIME SINCE, AFTERALL, WE’RE MEDICAL STUDENTS TOO :P
