Once the stock cover picture is generated by eBay and not seller, then I admit that seller is not the one who provided misleading information. Adjusting my feedback to Positive.

I strive for transparency in my listings and noted in the description that this item was a used, good copy without the dust jacket. I understand that the stock photo may have given a different impression, and I appreciate you bringing this to my attention.

The Angkor book arrived finally, and is indeed beautiful. Thank you. The USPS tracking system is woefully inadequate. Tracking at one point indicated early delivery, which would have been great as this was a birthday present, but then got hung up at one facility for MANY days before moving onward to the destination. Arriving after the birthday. Tracking should NOT post an early arrival date and then have the package sit in limbo for days. DeJoy is killing the postal system.

  • Great text book!

    This is one of the few textbooks that I have looked forward to reading. I have even reread portions of it. I would not sell this one back to the bookstore (well there's a new edition so they wouldn't take it anyways, but even if they would I'd keep it). :) Besides the painfully boring first chapter, the rest of the book is full of interesting information about the sports and society. It even touches on pro wrestling! It is well written and an user friendly textbook.
