ANNAPOLIS, Md.--(BUSINESS WIRE via COLLEGIATE PRESSWIRE)--Aug 26, 2002--BIGWORDS.com announces The Uber-BOT, which compares total order prices from leading online textbook stores including shipping, promotions and coupons so students can find the lowest prices, fastest shipping, and largest selection of textbooks.

''This is a real breakthrough,'' said BIGWORDS`s CEO Jeff Sherwood, ''because we are saving students a ton of money by finding the best combination of stores at which to buy their textbooks. The Uber-BOT price comparison finds the best textbook prices, promotions, coupons, and shipping, and just lays it all out - simple! One student actually saved $311.76, paying only $259.22 on a $570.98 retail order, and that includes shipping. It`s the easiest, most cost effective way for students to buy textbooks.''

BIGWORDS has established affiliate relationships with the leading online textbook retailers-- amazon.com, barnesandnoble.com, bookbundle.com, booksamillion.com, booksvalue.com, classbook.com, half.com, ecampus.com, powells.com, and textbookX.com--and created a consumer`s superhero - The Uber-BOT, who searches inventories, crunches numbers, and delivers results, quickly. His sidekick Mr. Squish does absolutely nothing.

The results are significant. Many students have written to BIGWORDS thanking the company for releasing the new service. In fact, BIGWORDS comparative analyses show that the typical student on an average two-or-more book transaction will save $51.88, about 31% including shipping. The average savings on 1 textbook is $20.91 (28%) including shipping.
