<b>The Option: service or theft?</b><br>Dammit, where's my money? If you've sold your books to The Option, you should be asking the same thing! How the hell does The Option function? You give them your books, and they sell them, but you don't ever see your money-and your books for that matter-ever again? Wouldn't it have been nice if you could have used the money from the books you sold to help buy your books for the new semester? Yes, it would, except don't plan on it with The Option!

Why didn't they mention that there would be a waiting period of, oh, an eternity in their advertisements? I would have been better off selling my books elsewhere-or keeping them. It doesn't make sense that the spring semester is almost over and I still haven't seen a cent for books that I sold at the end of last semester! It really feels like I've been ripped off.
