Buck teeth and braces
My friend has buck teeth and she does not want braces. She says they are too costly and does not want to pay money for an over bite when her teeth are fine the way they are. They are not fine she has a really big over bit/buck teeth issue. She is pretty and it is a shame she does not want to get braces so her teeth will look so much better. Is there any way for her to fix her buck teeth without braces that I can suggest to her?

First let me say it is not up to you to make your friend do anything she does not want to do. I can see that you may think you are trying to do some good but you maybe making her feel bad about herself regarding her teeth.
Unless you are offering to pay for her to get braces I would leave the matter alone.

I do agree with Andrew. However to answer your question, I do not think there is any other way to fix an over bite other then having braces. I am not sure how you would be able to convince her to get braces if she dose not want them.
If she does want braces and it is about cost. She could get either a dental insurance plan or a dental discount plan that will help her reduce her cost for braces. Try suggesting that to her if it is a cost factor.

Are you her friend? If you are get over it. It clearly sounds like she has told you she does not want to have braces. She also stated she is find with the way her teeth are.
If you are not her friend then leave. They are not your teeth. I am sure there are things about you she wished you would change to.
