    Hey Sean,

    You can bring your books in to the SU shop, you decide the price, but the SU takes 25% of whatever you sell your book for (so say your book sells for €10-you get €7.50 and the SU gets €2.50).

    The books have to be on this year's booklist for the shop to take them.

    Hope this helps!

    The Company law act recently changed so I imagine that you'll have to get the new book I'm afraid!

    Also remember that if you don't have the money and/or are not planning on doing the FE1s or KI you could probably survive on only buying Nutshells alone. The library and the internet will help you with access to books :)

    It would help if you could include who translated the ones in bold, since they can often change which translations they use from year to year. Wouldn't want incoming students feeling annoyed because they bought the wrong versions.

    They are all penguin classics except for the Sophocles etc one which is Oxford


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,764 ✭✭✭mickstupp


    Thanks for that. Still a question though, and if you don't already think I'm an annoying idiot, you probably soon will. Homer's Odyssey, even if it's Penguin, could still be either E V Rieu or Fagles, two very different translations. Likewise Ovid's Metamorphoses in Penguin could be by Golding, Raeburn or Innes. And Virgil's Aeneid in Penguin could be West or Fagles, Knight or maybe even John Dryden.

    I'm really sorry for maybe being a dick here, it's just that as you know the exams use extracts from the translations they want each year. If someone gets the Rieu translation of the Odyssey and opens the exam to see Fagles, they might have a tough time figuring out what they're looking at, it'll be completely unfamiliar, not to mention the line numbers are completely different... So selling these particular translations before the required texts for next year have been decided in August/September might mean you get very angry students getting back in touch with you demanding their money back. That's the only reason I asked for the translators.
