brendafromtenn Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 I will need TT algebra I and Pre/Calc this year.... But they are SO expensive......Just wondering if any of you bought these used and had good luck with that....We buy used books ALL the time, but CD's.....Well, that is another story...... Please share your experience with this. Thanks, Brenda:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFSinIL Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 I sold my TT prealgebra and have had no complaints. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Katia Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 (edited) No, I have bought all of mine new, but that seems to be because I have purchased them the year they become available, so there was no choice to get them used! However, I've sold all of my sets with no complaints. My dd is using the Trig/PreCalc this year. If you need it for next year, PM me. She'll be finished with it and I'd love for you to have it. Edited January 28, 2009 by Katia Arrg! NEW, I've bought them NEW, not used! Sorry for the goof. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rfhsmom Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 I bought both TTPre-Algebra and Algebra used and have had no problems. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mchel210 Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 I sold mine with no problem. I make sure to keep them in the case and scratch free. My only problem...I ended up needing it again and had to repurchase...Duhhh. The resale was very high on my TT. I think it is worth purchasing new as you can sell it for a little less then your purchase price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RebeccaC Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 I sold my TT prealgebra and have had no complaints. I bought her TT and love it but more importantly my son who struggles with math loves it. No regrets and would do it again. I also got Video text used. The first dvd had a problem but the company will sell me just that dvd for $12. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debbie in IL Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Brenda - I just saw your note, and I wanted you to know that I have TT Alg 1 available if you are interested. It is in almost new condition - we used it through lesson 50 or so. PM me if you are interested! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruthie Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Where have you guys found to be the best place to sell curriculum like TT? Ruthie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Katia Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 I sold most of mine on Vegsource, but a gal from our co-op bought my Geometry in Aug. It is finally 'known' enough that people around here are actively looking for it. I was going to give my algebra 2 set away to a gal in our church, but she forgot she asked for mine and purchased her own set.....so I sold mine. I've never advertised TT on these boards as most of the posters seem to think it isn't 'rigorous', so I didn't think anyone here would be interested.

Kelli in TN Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 I bought TT alg2 used from these boards with no problem. However, I purchased it from a long time poster that I had a good feeling about. I would be hesitant to purchase discs from an absolute stranger. Okay, we are all really strangers here, aren't we? But I meant a stranger as in someone you had never even corresponded with on a message board. Actually you and I are not strangers, are we? I think we qualify as not strangers since we have met twice!! Ack. I am rambling. Anyway, I just wanted to say that yes, I have purchased it used with no problems!!!

brendafromtenn Posted January 28, 2009 Author Share Posted January 28, 2009 No, I would not consider you a stranger at all! (Ya'll we live about an hour from each other. Said with my best southern drawl....) (Did you get a lot of snow and ice??) Blessings, Brenda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brendafromtenn Posted January 28, 2009 Author Share Posted January 28, 2009 O.K. ya'll once I figure out how to PM (I am SO stuck in the 80's), then I will contact the two ladies that have the two TT's for sale..... Will try and figure this out after supper..... Thanks to all who answered my e-mail today! Blessings, Brenda Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brendafromtenn Posted January 29, 2009 Author Share Posted January 29, 2009 I sent two PM's out. One to Katia and one to Debbie. Will see if I am successful. I am SUCH a paper and pencil type of gal.....Thanks for being patient with me.....:) Blessings, Brenda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moni Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 We've bought used and sold used, bought new and sold used. I don't know about luck, ;) but I have done so. :seeya: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pamela H in Texas Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 I sold a perfectly good TT Algebra II years ago. The people didn't have any issue. It's still QUITE pricey used though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Did you get a lot of snow and ice??) Blessings, Brenda We dodged the bullet this time. You know we don't get much ice and snow. We only seem to attract tornadoes round these here parts!!!
