Hello everyone.

I'm an ex-ICPU student in Taylor's University College.
So here's the deal. I need to pay a huge sum of money last year to buy all the textbooks, they're kinda expensive as a chemistry textbook cost around 200+. Not that you can't buy photocopied textbooks, I mean they're WAY cheaper. 1 cost around RM50. But for those of you interested in buying original textbooks, and perhaps some photocopied textbooks, I'll ask around my friends to see who are interested in selling their textbooks.

One thing though, I'm not quite sure how your gonna get your textbooks from them. So what I'm gonna do is that I'll advertise the books(along with the price) in this thread. And anyone interested in buying the books should pm me and I'll give you the e-mails or numbers that you can contact. Take note that the sellers are mostly JPA scholars like me and you, so there should not be any scamming or anything.

Not sure whether this will work out or not though. Just trying my best to help my friends and those who wants to buy 2nd hand textbooks. Mind you, I've seen students from other courses selling their textbooks in front of Taylor's, and basically it was kinda disappointing as some of them actually sold their books at a higher price, like RM300 for a RM195 book.

Anyway, I typed too much here. So I'll update this thread each time I get a request from my friends. So keep a lookout for this thread from time to time.

Best regards.

OK, so here's the newest input from one of my friends.

Seller #1(EOSY)
Book Title Price

- Calculus and Vectors(Original) RM150- 180
- International Business(Photocopied) RM10
- Hamlet RM20
- Pride and Prejudice RM10

DO take note that Hamlet and Pride & Prejudice are both English literature books and the lecturers most probably wont use it. So I will only recommend these books for those who love to read good novels and plays. Those interested in buying the books, do pm me the seller number along with the code in bracket and the book. I will pm you the email which you can contact him/her to further discuss about it.

As for me, I only have Calculus and Vectors for sale. Price is RM140 cuz' it's not in such a nice condition, lol. Got it soaked while walking back in the rain, haha.

A piece of advice though, do confirm the subjects your taking from Taylor's to prevent any unnecessary money wastage(buying the wrong book, zzz) or alternatively, discuss with your seller first. Anything that goes awry will not be my responsibility XP

wa.. jforce and vaanbathier. where are u all from arr.. I think u all know who I am just that I am very blur who are you two.. Hehe.. But it think u two are from penang and kedah. Hmm.. engineering. U need to take computer science, physics, chemistry, advance function, calculus, english 3u and english 4u. Physics and chemistry, calculus and advance function u need textbooks If u want to really save, u can borrow from school library. Then, you borrow alternately with ur friend's account. Anyway, if you want textbooks I can try asking my friend for u though I am business student.Anyway, its kinda hard for u to get textbooks from us because we have left the college. But i can help u ask.. Email me, xiangrong209@<hidden>.. Haha

An advice to all: ENG4U literature book changes EVERY year. You probably shouldnt buy it, unless you want the book for reading purposes.
