Book was listed as 'very good' condition, but when it arrived the cover had stains, creases and folds, and a small tear on one edge. It was packaged ok and the packaging was not damaged, so this was not something that happened during shipping. I messaged them and they replied quickly and instructed me to initiate a return through eBay. I was refunded the full price in less than an hour. Great customer service!

  • Wow - this book really helped!

    I was new to on-line dating when I got this book and now I realize I didn't really understand the opportunities before me. Now I feel more confident and I accept rejections as just a part of the whole thing. The book gives you a good overview of what is out there - options. Gives advise on how to write a good portfolio - what works, what doesn't. What NOT to do. I really like when the authors (a couple who met each other on-line) put in their own personal views - even when those disagree sometimes. I'm very glad I purchased this book.
