New Technology Finds Best Deals on Textbooks for College Students

AUSTIN, Texas, May 10, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- FindersCheapers.com combines real-time new and used textbook pricing with daily information updates from major brick and mortar retailers to provide a superior textbook shopping experience. "I created FindersCheapers.com with the goal of finding great deals from individuals who are selling items they no longer need, but I also wanted to feature all the large brick and mortar retailers. It turns out this approach is perfect for used textbook shopping," says FindersCheapers founder James Krewson.

"We offer real-time pricing for new, used and rental textbooks, along with the best textbook search capabilities on the Internet," says James. "Our basic search allows the user to search by any attribute including the ISBN number. We also provide full text search capabilities for students without ISBN information. Students may also refine their textbook search using popular search filters such as title, edition, publisher, author, book format, etc."

To understand how textbook shoppers benefit from FindersCheapers' search filtering, consider shopping for a book entitled Biology. Searching for the word "biology" yields thousands of search results due to the popularity of the term in book titles. By using FindersCheapers' search filtering, shoppers can narrow results by publisher, author, or edition to quickly locate the lowest price for the desired book.

FindersCheapers checks used and refurbished prices in real-time on key marketplaces such as Amazon Marketplace, Alibris, eBay and Half.com in addition to showing daily price updates from major brick and mortar retailers such as Barnes and Noble and Wal-Mart. With over 55 million product listings that span all product categories, FindersCheapers is one of the most comprehensive consumer product search engines on the Internet. Students can also find real-time pricing on school supplies and other back-to-school items.

"In addition to real-time pricing and enhanced product searches, it is the variety of products we offer which makes FindersCheapers unique," says James Krewson. "Many shopping websites focus on a select range of products but I created a website that offers one-stop price comparison for most products in the United States."
