You can go ahead and start with campus bookstores (overwhelmingly owned by either Barnes & Noble or Follett) who add a 25-35% mark-up over the net prices from publishers. Not accusing /u/SkullShapedCeiling of this particularly, because you're definitely not wrong on the prices being really damned high, but there's usually a reason when a very competitive market (and yes, textbooks are competitive) has consistently high prices. As in most threads where the textbook price discussion comes up, I feel there's a lot of misunderstanding regarding where the bulk of the price is coming from.
