      The book finally came exactly as described. New condition! The book packaging was great! The seller is not responsive when you message them. But the book was stuck in GA for a while, then it came. Ebay had my 2 packages messed up on witch one was and wasn't delivered. So I was confused. Over all I am satisfied with the book!!
