    Anyone have a spare mymathlab code?

    My calculus class is using this online mymathlab shit, and my brand new sealed textbook is missing the insert with the code to register it. My college bookstore is being a bunch of dicks and won't swap the book because it's opened, and won't even buy it back because they don't sell this book used.

    So anyone have a spare access code? Otherwise I need to buy one online for another $45. Comes with a lot of pearson math books, doesn't matter which specific book you got it from. The insert looks like this.

    If anyone could hook me up I would be much obliged.

    Go above their heads and complain

    There's always someone willing to fix their shit, just sometimes hard to find it.

    Err actually you're right, I checked online and it's $57 lol. My prof told us it was $45 to buy separately if we got a used book, that bastard.

    This. Seriously, you bought the book, you should not be having to run around and beg/steal/borrow a code. Complain, loudly. It works. Mention local press and keep going higher and higher up the food chain. Who cares if it's only $50, it's the principle.

    Oh god I hated mymathlab. Would rather work problems on paper. Its so touchy when it comes to using spaces and what not. So glad I don't have to deal with that shit this semester.

    Believe me, I already fought with the managers of the bookstore for a good while, but they claim it isn't their fault that the book is missing the kit since it was sealed, and it would be against policy to replace it. I'm sure I could try to fight with the publisher and try to get them to send me another kit, but I don't really have time for that, considering I have assignments due on this shit due tomorrow already. This thread was a last ditch effort to save me $57, since ultimately I need a code by tonight/early-tomorrow.

    That'd be illegal here. Don't you have a trading standards authority?

    I usually just buy the code, since the online version of the book already come with the code.

    Yea I seriously hate this code thing. My Stats book is $150 with code, while the used books are only ~$40. Reason the prof. using this code is because it grades the HW for him so he doesn't have to go and look at everyone problems. GUESS WHAT YOU GETTING PAY FOR THAT DAMN IT. My Calculus prof. graded all our papers, god I loved her. None of this code bs!
