Tired of long lines and what some say are overpriced textbooks? Now you can find the best textbook deals without the wait, all in the comfort of your own room.
A Carolina junior and an alum have created CarolinaSwap.com, a Web site that lets students browse books, compare prices posted by students on Amazon.com and buy books from other students.
If you're not sure which books you're going to need, CarolinaSwap also posts the titles of the books required for various classes.
