This came very quickly, which I appreciated since it is for an upcoming trip. The book is clean, though the binding could be tighter in a couple of places. It will make it through this adventure, but there are a couple of pages to which it falls open automatically, which can indicate pages will fall out at those points. However, it is in fine shape for my purposes, was well priced, and came quickly!
