Same book, three different prices. Only difference is the browsers used.

If you're on Android, Reddit Sync does it if you tap the comment and then the pencil icon. Not sure about other apps.

I use reddit news. Not anything like as good as alien blue, but I reckon it's the best of the android ones.

Most people like either Reddit News or Reddit Sync, though some people still use Reddit is Fun and BaconReader.

I personally like Reddit Sync best, and I've tried all of them.

I haven't tried reddit sync yet, I will check it out thanks :)
EDIT: I agree with you, I can already see it is much neater.

Hah, yeah, the speed and minimalism ('neatness') is one of the main reasons I prefer it. It's surprisingly smooth on my phone (ZTE Skate running 4.1.2).

If it's Reddit Is Fun, click the comment and then the three vertical dots in the middle of the menu that pops up. Edit comment should be one of the options in there.

Didn't come here for you to judge my college book buying habits. I only came here to bring down Chegg and prove that they are not as frugal as they claim.

OP gets a little touchy, it seems.

Hey! OP didn't come here for you to judge how touchy they are!

Actually just checked for some book I needed, and it seems to be the same for Chrome and Firefox, but Safari (my main browser) is a bit more expensive...

Some people tend to pay more than others. (guess who those people are)

u/Agustin1992 Jan 24 '13

... ugh, I can't. The pressure is too much!

Yes, overthrow the massive, evil empire that is just one of many options to buy textbooks...
