Love the book, but wasn't "good" condition.

I love this encyclopedia of dictionaries, I had a copy growing up that I practically couldn't live without. It was lost over the years so when I found one on Amazon I was so excited! The book itself is wonderful, however I'm upset with the seller Grandma Tabby out of Arizona because the one I bought was listed as "good" condition but when I opened it the entire cover is separated from the spine.

The book is excellent and a great introduction to linguistics.
But I ordered a rental book, and it is not in good condition.  The back section (about 15 signatures) separated from the spine of the book.

I hope this is taken into consideration when I return the book!

I love this book because I am a MacFarlane clan member, but I was very disappointed in the condition in which this book arrived.  I excitedly opened the package anticipating rewrapping it because it is a Christmas Gift only to find the cover creased back as if it had been well read.  Since I didn't have any time left to exchange before mailing it off to my nephew in another state, I Christmas wrapped it and sent it off. I am still disappointed that when he opens it, it won't be fresh and crisp.  I would hesitate to order a book as a gift because of this experience. That's about all I can say about this experience.

Don't get me wrong, the book is beatiful. But I have to give a low rate because when I buy it second handed it said it was like new and it was not. The pages where falling off and the front was heavy used.
Besides that the book is very nice to read, and carry.

The book came the day it was expected , but I wouldn't call it an acceptable condition . The book is very worn out , has water stains , and  the cover is slightly ripped .

I'm a little disappointed in the condition of the book I recieved, it was listed as "very good" but would have been much better if it were described "good" condition.

I deperately needed this book for study and was so happy to find a great price.  The description said it was in very good shape, however the binding is actually in really bad shape.  This is the first time I have not been 100% satisfied with the condition of what I purchased from Amazon, sometimes I made mistakes in applications, but I may have opted for the slightly more expensive book if I had known the binding was falling apart.  I do use the book and it is doing what I needed it to do....

I love this book. The story is cute, and the illustrations are fun. I gave one star only because the seller, Orion Technology, stated the book was in good used condition, but there are pen scibbles on almost every page. I don't consider that "good" condition. Thankfully I purchased this for my son and not as a gift because it would be unacceptable to give in this condition.

I loved this book, but the condition of the book was not good.  A chunk of the pages were upside down, not in order and I couldn't tell the page numbers! Very frustrating! How could you miss that? Otherwise the information is awesome.

Book itself is great but the book I received was super damaged. I understand a little wear because I am renting it, but to me it was a bit excessive

I had to leave a star off because of the condition of the book; it doesn't seem like the condition is "new" like it said. It has a small rip on the back cover and is a little scuffed around the edges with a little bit of sticky residue on the front. However, it is a fantastic book and a good read so I am keeping it because the condition overall is not that big of a deal.

This is a great book- however it was listed as being in much better condition than when i received it. I will keep it and enjoy it but I don't feel it is in good enough condition to give as a gift which was why I bought it initially.

I love Todd Parr's messages; all of his books are wonderful. I am disappointed in Amazon as a seller of this particular one...the book came properly packaged; however, there is damage to the cover and a few pages are torn. It appears as if the book was more than gently used, but that is not mentioned in items description at all.

The book itself is a wonderful product! The book itself was in poorer condition than I expected. Tried to cover over the marks,but was impossible to get them all. So I was dissatisfied with its condition the buyer said it was in.

I already had this book and I love the book itself. The book is 5/5, love the whole series. But this specific product was not great. My copy got damanged, which is why I wanted a new one. The first copy I got was damaged in the mail and the cover was folded. I returned it since I didn't want to replaced a damaged version with another damaged version. The second copy I got from this seller also had a small fold on the cover which was very frustrating but I didn't want to go through the effort of shipping it back for a second time when I am going to keep getting damaged copies apparently.

Great book, but came in terrible condition - the firt five pages fell out immediately! I'm getting it fixed but the seller (Esquibel Books) should have checked. Used doesn't mean half-assed quality and making sure the product still exists in relation to ability to sell it, especially in regards to a graphic novel.

This review is about both the book itself and the condition in which I received the book.  Let's begin with the book itself.  It's a very nicely written book with hints of nostalgia and wonder, especially for all of the book lovers out there.  The characters are interesting, and the author does a good job of giving enough information to grasp our attention.

 The book was not secured/wrapped at all and was simply placed on top of the records.  The edges of the book were frayed and the cover itself has a distinguishable dent on it.  The book and records were gifts for my fiance who loves books, and for her it was painful to see the little care taken in packaging a book.  I purchased this product in a "New" state and expected it to be that way. I am very disappointed in this service and will reconsider ordering books from Amazon in the future.
