I recieved the book in a timely manner, which I appreciated, however 99% of the time that I order from Amazon and the condition is described as “Used, good as new” the merchandise is in very good condition.

I’m now leary about ordering things that have been used, whereas before I trusted the description completely and had never been disappointed.
