Item description from the seller
Seller feedback (196,429)
- h***0 (3)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseI’m very satisfied with my purchase. Although it did arrive a few days late, it was definitely worth $18 for a densely packed, 1000 paged textbook with lots and lots of questions to reinforce your understanding. In terms of the seller and the condition of the book, the seller was very truthful in their description, and marked the book as “acceptable”. I’ve only explored a fraction of the book, and as far as I’m concerned, the majority is “good”. I’m very happy, it looks great, great quality.

It arrived in better than expected condition (was listed as Acceptable, but I would call it New). Was packaged securely for mailing. The price was the best I had seen and I couldn't be happier that I decided to buy it. I would definitely buy from this seller again, and would recommend them to others, as well.
