I very recently bought a similar book from "Print Books USA." They clearly give you the impression that they are a USA based company, but when the book is shipped to you it arrives from New Delhi, India (that should tell you something right there). When I first saw that I had a package arriving from Fedex Express, New Delhi, I was a bit nonplussed. But, I quickly determined it was the book.

When the package arrived, it was clean and undamaged. No bends, creases or marks on the package itself. I breathed a sigh of relief when I saw this because I am so used to getting beaten up books from the USPS through Amazon, where you can immediately tell from the package the book is a goner.

To be clear, I bought the book as a new book, paid the new book price, just as this one. When I opened the package, the book was covered in dirt and grime. Black dirt. It had a massive crease, not just on the cover, but one that penetrated EVERY single page in the book, along the vertical axis of the book. As if someone had stuck it in a vise and clamped it good. Every page in the book was creased, not just in one spot, but perhaps 10 or 20 spots on each page, suggesting that it had been someone's school textbook. It had been well-read. Over and over. Dirt on the inside pages. ABSOLUTELY NO DOUBT THAT IT WAS A HIGHLY USED BOOK.

I contacted the seller and he offered a refund. It never appeared. I told the seller the same spiel, but he still insisted that it was delivery damage. Not possible. Physically impossible. If the package is unblemished, then the only way to damage the book without damaging the package is if you happen to know the "Five Fingers of Death Kung Fu Technique," and you use it on the book.
