The item came exactly as described, out the box brand new and in excellent condition. It even came with the connect code which I wasn't expecting. The price was great as well, you'll usually see it for way more money so I'm also happy about that. :) The seller shipped it out very quickly which I'm extremely thankful for as I needed it for my classes. Highly recommend!
