Great Buy:
This book came to me in ment condition. Looks brand new and had no ware on it at all. It save me money, time, and effort. This was a great buy!
Took entirely to long to get book!!:
I purchased the book Aug.28. Why should I have to pay for 2-3 day shipping when I just got the book 1 week ago!! I will never order from Amazon again. The only positive thing about it was the book was in the shape described.
