Perhaps this is cultural, but Ohio State doesn't handle used books itself -
that is a function of the external sellers. I specifically called up
The Student Book eXchange (SBX) at 14th and High St., Columbus, OH, across
the street from The Ohio State University, and asked them if they carried it.
The answer was negative.

Again, please read below... when I said "OSU" I specifically mentioned
Ohio State *not* Oregon State. Now... there is a Powell, OH, near
Columbus... perhaps they have a "Portland Book Store"? :-)
