Review #1: worse than expected 2010-09-23  It's the first time to write a review online. I bought many textbooks from various sellers via Amazon for more than 3-4 years and I've never disappointed by what I bought just until I got this book. I expected just same thing as I experienced in the past. However, this time, there is a big discrepancy in condition between what seller explained and what i had. Some pages are too bad to read despite the seller said it is in very good condition. |
