    Hi Ladies,

    It has been quite some time since I last chimed in. Life has had us busy with working outside the home. I continue to prepare for our first year of homeschool THIS FALL!!! Can you believe it? I'm getting more excited and definitely more nervous too. :)

    I am looking for trustworthy places to purchase used curriculum. I am looking for the Abeka History 3 Curriculum in particular. I have been purchasing different pieces from ebay and christianbook.com (new of course here) but like to find the teacher editions or curriculum / lesson plan books used as they tend to run much more. Any website suggestions or thoughts are greatly appreciated. Thanks so much!! Can't wait to have more time to login more often. :D

    i have just recently bought something from curriculum review.com. It's the first time ever buying used so I am a bit nervous what my new to me curriculum is going to look like.

    I have bought & sold a few things on homeschoolclassifieds.com.

    Have you checked to see if there's a yahoo group for your preferred curriculum yet? I recently found a yahoo group for our lesser known curriculum. I have already bought something from a lady. I wish I had thought to search for it 3 years ago!

    I dropped off ebay for the most part when they banned teacher guides. I still see some there even though it's a no-no. I look for student books there sometimes.

    I have bought and sold on vegsource.com and have had a good experience each time- even sold to someone in Canada.

    Just be sure to use "CTRL and " at the same time to search -it's a busy site with tons of stuff

    there is a yahoo board that I've also bought/sold on with good success
