I would suggest you buy the hard copies and then sell them where you are - probably can get a premium if they are not available locally.

thank you BOTH for ur help...latest update is:
these r the books i have now-----
1. Official Gmat review 11th n 12th edition
2. MGMAT fractions decimals n percents
3. MGMAT sentence correction
4. MGMAT critical reasoning
5. MGMAT word translation
6. Kaplan Gmat premiere program 2009
7. Kaplan Math Workbook 6th edition
8. PR's Cracking the Gmat

MY Questions:
1. how much do the editions matter? am i at any disadvantage with older editions of these books?
2. are these books enough for a 650+ score?
3. are these books good enough for the quant portion, knowing im pretty weak in maths or/and need a good refreshing course that helps rebuild concepts n provides strategy to solve/make calculations w/o a calculator easier?
4. this is the best i could get, quant is a big concern for me, so starting prep,which book should i attack first?

after finally gathering this material for gmat, anxiously waiting for some advice so i can get down to its prep...FINALLY...

Editions for those books don't really matter that much - there have been hardly any changes in the last 3 years.
