Even though this book was listed as used, there wasn't a single mark in it. It was basically a new book, and I got a GREAT price. I was very happy with the condition of the book. I was also happy that the book arrived relatively quicker than I expected. I was glad I made the choice to purchase from you. Thank you very much for such an awesome product.

The book was in good condition but i wasnt expecting it to be a teachers addition because the saler didnt say anything about it. Although, the book is what i need for class, so it its good for my class. I also got the book pretty fast.

Too Expensive by A. Pacheco (Berkeley, CA) 3 Stars

There's a ton of highlighting which I don't mind, but it was too much for that amount of highlighting. Also, I picked up the book in person but I still had to pay the $6 shipping fee.
