Good Conditions, Boring Book,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Wellness: Concepts and Applications (Paperback)
It came in the condition it was promised to me. I don't really mind that a lot of the self-assessment activities are MIA.

Horrible Seller,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Wellness: Concepts and Applications (Paperback)
This seller is unfair, not understanding, not accomidating and is rude. I was in need of this book for class and thought i would try amazon.com and see what i come up with. I found that the price was a 20 dollar difference thatn getting it through my school. So i went ahead and paid for a New book and One day shipping. Recieved this Two days later and not a new book. This book i recieved was used, it has pages missing out of it. So when i contacted the seller about it i offered a few suggestions since i am in need of the book. I suggested that he send me a new one and i will send this one back as an exchange. He told me 'No if you want a refund you have to send the book back." After that i treid to reason with him again and was told that if i keep the book i would only get the shipping cost back. Never recieved that either. So after that i filed a clami with Amazon and asked him again what he would do about this and had explain multiple times that if i don't have this book and the pages that are missing i will come close to failing this class. He didn't care at all. Told me it was not his concern and that he would not do anything about it to help or accomidate the need. So then i told him i would ship it back and was told that i had to pay to ship it back and he wanted tracking on it. I'm not paying for something that i had paid for in the first place to be the right book and what i wanted. I will never order from someone outside of Amazon.com again. This is just rediculous i have to go through all this trouble just to get my money back when it was not my mistake in the first place. I paid the 54 for the book and 18 for the shipping. I was not pleased right from the start. He didn't have to pay anything and still wants me to pay to ship it back with tracking and conformation. I do not think so. I will never order from this seller again. Very upset and dislike how i have been treated as well. m
