Mine tended cost around $50-120 and if you sold it back in mint condition you might get half of that back.
It sounds like you used the university's book store. Most offer similarly horrible buyback deals. Don't do that. Boycott the campus book store. Buy used online, sell used online. Except for when a new edition just came out, you end up coming pretty close to breaking even.
