    The book was competitively priced, ordering was easy, the book was well packaged and arrived safely, and its condition was exactly as specified.The delivery time from ordering to mailbox was a little long (14 days), but overall it was a good experience and I would use this seller again.

    My kid really wanted this, and she likes it. I don’t think the value is great, just more HP commercialism. (She paid me and I ordered, btw.) The price from this seller on eBay is less than anywhere else we found. Reviews citing LONG wait between order and receiving the items are correct: give this seller a full 2 weeks to get items to you. The set arrived carefully packaged and pristine. Overall, my daughter is very pleased with the item. If you can be patient, seller offers good value.

    Item as described, but slow shipping. 18 days for the item to arrive. No padding in packaging, the item arrived a little beat up.

  • I can't say it's fantastic

    But I did learn a lot. Having said that there are many newer books out there that do have the bulk of the same information, plus of course more up-to-date and useful tips. However if I had to do it again I would buy it again if for nothing else the easy tips on watering, keeping out pests and what I call the buddy system of planting described in the book.....what plants grow great along side others in the same bed.
