The book was accurately described, and only took a few days to get here. Very satisfied!
Rating: - fast shipping
The book arrived in the condition they specified. I was buying used so I didn't expect anything perfect. The cover only had a few abrasions and only some of the pages were highlighted. They shipped it fast. I believe I got the book by the end of the week I ordered it.
Rating: - Timing
I will never again order anything sent via "media mail". It must go around the world and back before it gets to you. There was also no confirmation on when the item shipped. I had to ask multiple times. It would be good if there was another shipping option. I would have happily paid more to get it in time for my class.
