 Never Again will I use Amazon for books April 13, 2008
4 out of 16 found this review helpful
I purchased this book from Amazon because of the good price and reasonable shipping. I paid for expedited shipping so I could receive my book in time for my second assignment. It said 2-7 days it would be at my door. On the 7th day when my book never came, I emailed the seller to see what was going on. Apparently, Amazon never sent the seller the email to let him know to send my the book. But they sure took my money. I asked the seller for my shipping money back, and to ship it to me ASAP, but instead he refunded my entire money, not what I wanted. Therefore, I will never ever use this site for book purchases. If Amazon is going to charge my account for a purchase, they need to get on the right page with its sellers. Now I still do not have a book for my course because after the whole ordeal it was not worth it because my class was half way over.
