    I was searching for this book for a while and was appalled at the cost. I came across this seller and I was happy with the price from the seller. The seller messaged to let me know that this was the global version before it was actually shipped. That, I appreciated so much. My book arrived in perfect condition, looks great. The packaging was secure and the book, brand new. This is of great quality both in the service and the book. I will definitely use this seller again. Excellent!

    Item came exactly as describe. I really appreciate the time and caution the seller took to package this book. There was no way it could've received any water damage delivery because it was so well wrapped. The book came sooner than the expected date. At one point I even received a later date and that made me concerned because I thought it wouldn't come in time. But it did, very early as well. I recommend this seller 100% and would purchase from seller in the future if needed. Thank you so much!!
