Customer Reviews

Pretty Good service

The book arrived very quickly which I was very happy about. However I thought that I remember the book being classified as "Like New". If I were to describe the book it would have been "Very Used". But it was only for school, so looks don't ultimately matter. But the service overall was very good.
