wrong version,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Building Vocabulary for College (Paperback)
The used book itself is in very good condition except that it is not a student version, it is for teacher and I did not know about that. My daughter brought to my attention and I send an email to the seller and they refunded the purchase and the shipping. I am satisfied with the quality of the used book even though it was the wrong version. Seller did their best to fix the problem.
