When I ordered this book I did think it had to be printed new and thought like anly other books that I was going to get very quickly so I sent a email to forgotten books to ask for a tracking number and then forgotten books got back to me to say it was been printed what a shock after a week or so it was sent out very quickly then stupid me realized that I ordered only the first volume I though I ordered both so I ordered the second a few days afterwards from world of books got that today.
Original Book sent was not as described in the description by the seller. However the seller was quick to acknowledge the error and the correct one sent and now received: this I appreciated as sometimes mistakes do happen but it is the reaction of sellers (either companies or private sellers) that can concern me on occasion. Not this time though and recommend the seller to others and if on the rare occasions something does go slightly wrong they will rectify it immediately.
I am very happy with the book and packaging. The communication was lacking in this instance as there was a delay due to the Easter holidays that I was not made aware of and it was left to me to contact the seller in regards to the delivery of the item. That being said, I would be happy to deal with this seller again and would encourage them to rethink the communication side of things. Thank you.
