    Purchased and quickly cancelled order. The seller monitors messages and cancelled the order before it shipped with a full refund. Honest seller, good prices, and excellent customer service. I would reconsider purchasing from this seller. A++

    Unfortunately the book I received was in bad shape and was a different edition than was shown in the listing, however, my experience with the seller was excellent! I reached out requesting a refund and very quickly received a very professional and friendly reply and an immediate refund. Based on this experience I would recommend buying from this seller!

    Fast shipping. The package was sealed well, but no padding was added to secure the item inside the box. The book's condition was a bit worse than expected. With only a stock photo provided in the listing, a more detailed description of the book's condition should have been provided.
