Don’t trust it...

This website is good for personal books but NOT textbooks. I took a risk and purchased the 8th edition of community policing for school because I noticed it was significantly cheaper on this website compared to others. However, it was indeed too good to be true. I received the 4th edition instead. Luckily I only wasted 5 or so dollars but for all other students out there go to Chegg!
