the sticker on the front was no big deal at all. the seller was upfront about it in the description which i appreciate. it came off easily with a bit of alcohol and scraping. there was a rip in the package when i received it, but i know that wasn't the sellers fault- definitely the post office. shipping was quicker than i expected and the book is in amazing condition. super excited to start reading since i just finished the first book and the price? such a great deal and find! seller is fanastic
