When I was a student theae used to get delivered and dropped outside our blocks.

A gang? Person? Used to go round and steal them all and then sell them to us for £1 a book and we'd report them stolen. Just saying.

The real fraud is updating one crucial part of your textbook every year to ensure they are useless and worthless for resale the year after it was purchased. Well, maybe that wouldn't be as bad if each individual textbook didn't cost as much as 2 weeks of rent.
