I was very unhappy with the service that I received concerning this textbook. Please allow me to explain; First, since the cost of the textbook from the Cleveland State University bookstore was so outrageous, I had resolved to obtain the book from one of the libraries in the Cleveland area. I put in two different request at two different libraries, one a city library and one from the county library. I heard nothing from them for a total of almost two months! Finally, I contacted both libraries at seperate times and was told that I would not be able to receive the book for whatever the reason. I was not called. I finally ordered the book from Half.com, the second week in November for $73.00. I clicked on priority msiling, but for some reason, it would not take my request to receive the book asap. I had hoped to receive the text book the same week in which I had ordered it, seeing how several classmates of mine had said that they had only had to wait two or three days to have it mailed. Unfortunatley, I did not receive the book until the LAST WEEK OF THE SEMESTER in December, the week before Finals. I did not own a book for the entire semester until it was too late to try to past the court.I have to repeat the course so that I can graduate. So, as you may guess, I am not happy with the service. I think that for the problem that it caused me to order the textbook, the only remedy for me that would be satisfactory, would be to credit the $73.00 that I spent on this unhappy experience back to my account. I feel that this would be proper compensation. Sincerely, Michael LLoydRead full review
The book I ordered was the Instructor's Edition. It is not much different besides giving answers to all questions, not just some. It is also the only math book I have ever seen that gives problems that relate to the real world and, therefore, making it more entertaining.
Not sure how I feel yet! I thought that I was purchasing the book advertised in the picture, but I recieved a totally different looking book! Yes the title is the same, but I won't know if the book is the same as the one pictured as far as text goes, until school starts. And this seller doesn't do exchange????
Bookstores do sell the books for entirely too much. I learned that the hard way, after I bought all of mine in the store last semester. I realized online they were cheaper, but we were not able to return ours unless we dropped the classes. It's ridiculous.
My daughter needed this Math book for college. At the college bookstore, we bought it for DOUBLE the price!!!!! After I bought this one, she just returned the other (unused). Now, I will look for her books on half.com first.
