1.0 out of 5 stars Not for a beginner in finance
This is a terrible finance book if you are a beginner. I had to take this class for a Major that is not even in my field. I have zero background in this finance.

This review is from: Principles of Managerial Finance, Brief (5th Edition) (Hardcover)
This is a terrible finance book if you are a beginner. I had to take this class for a Major that is not even in my field. I have zero background in this finance. Honestly I spent most of my time googleing concepts and other examples. The questions/problems at the end of the chapter do not following the examples explained in the chapter. Overall I think Gitman did an awful job explaining many concepts. I gave up reading the chapters and went to a few good finance websites to learn the covered chapters. Gitman loves to just through a bunch of useless vocabulary words out there and fails to truly explain concepts. I'm sure this would be a great book if you already had a solid background. Honestly, I would not pay for this book! It's a way over priced door stop and emergency toilet paper for me. PS it makes me sick that Lawrence J. Gitman stole my money by writing such as God awful book!

4.0 out of 5 stars School book, October 15, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Principles of Managerial Finance, Brief (5th Edition) (Hardcover)
It was easy to order and a confirmation was sent out as soon as I was done ordering. I received the book fast- it only took 6 days to come after I ordered. The condition of the book is fair to good. There were some highlighting and the edges were a little worn. Overall, I'm very pleased of my purchase and would buy from this seller again.

5.0 out of 5 stars FirstClass books stands by their guarantee, February 23, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Principles of Managerial Finance, Brief (5th Edition) (Hardcover)
I recently ordered a used book for school from Firstclass books. The book cost $78. I did receive it within the correct time frame (7 business days). The exterior of the book I received was completely taped with white tape with the books name and author typed on it. I was very disappointed with this book and emailed Firstclass books. Their delayed response almost caused me to send a very negative review. They did respond and said they would ship me out a new (used) book. I received it yesterday and it looks great. They apologized for the condition of the first book and said it was a mistake. Because of their response I will buy from Firstclass again. Sincerely, Scott (Ohio)

1.0 out of 5 stars very bad, September 26, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Principles of Managerial Finance, Brief (5th Edition) (Hardcover)
It was mentioned as 'like new' and when I received it, almost all the pages are written in pen with notes, underlining, rounding and some crappy pictures. I won't buy again from them

5.0 out of 5 stars Satisfied, September 29, 2008
This review is from: Principles of Managerial Finance, Brief (5th Edition) (Hardcover)
I got the book in good condition. There was a little confusion because the post office destroyed the original packaging and sent it back to the seller and she thought that I didn't get the book, but the post office re-packaged it and continued it on it's way to me. All is well now!
