I know its cool to find stuff, besides being so morally wrong, selling stolen property is a felony or soem offense isnt it? Turn it into the office/ administration, get your karma back.

Um, It was at a school, someone else's name is in the back, they obviously lost it at the place they attend and he had/has the opportunity to return it. Even hough that's nto the definition of stealing, youre not being honest. Those things run in the hundreds, and because of him taking and not returning it, they had to spend another outrageous amount of money on something they could have had given back to them. Thats just indecent I think. I dont understand how anyone on this forum doesnt see it that way. Think about if it was you who lost it...

i lost mine... and I was like... damn... gotta spend 100 bucks... but then I found this one a few weeks later and I was like... YAY! ;)

In either case, if you want to judge me, go ahead, i dont care. I have graphing calculators that are entirely useless to me because at my university, we arent allowed to use calculators in math, and in any other subject, we arent allowed to use graphing calculators. If someone wants them because I have no need for any of them, they are welcome to take.

What math are you in? Most classes require them. What uni is this at?

Well what if the person who lost theirs didnt find anothewr one laying around? You are a complete tool my friend. Youre making yourself look like a shady character to do buisness with, if you would just keep something like that. For real, buck up my friend.

... yes... exactly... through me not using and just selling random junk laying around in my house, I am thus a tool....

Im taking calculus 1... at my university, you cant use a graphing calculator until you reach calculus 3. Even then it is limited.

and like what miles said... you really dont need a calculator...

Sure you don't need a calc, but doing residuals, boxplots and equations of line regressions by hand for data sets is tedious...and I have much better things to do with my time! :D

Math classes you arent allowed to use graphing calculators. But nobody said anything about Excel or in stat classes ;)
