    Book arrived sooner than expected in great packaging. I contacted the selle b/ they sent the correct book but whose condition was a little less than described. They communicated with me immediately. They apologized, gave me a full refund without my asking. I fully look forward to purchasing from them again. It provides revenue to fund local job training, education, and community programs that help people find employment and achieve financial stability. Thank you!

    I bought several books from this seller and this book was not included with the total package. I pointed this out to the seller and although they looked for the missing item, they couldn't find it. The seller refunded the cost of the book plus they removed part of the shipping cost. This was a smooth transaction. I will continue to purchase more books from this organization. In fact I not only ordered a second set of books, which all arrived, I plan to order still more books in the future.
