PLEASE DO NOT USE AbeBooks: Our family is begging you - please learn from our horrible experience with AbeBooks. As we took a financial loss, hopefully sharing this note will help other families avoid a similar experience. The book was never delivered! The customer service does not monitor the designated "contact us" email box, no responses, no follow-up, nothing. We hope this helps. God Bless.

A waste of money. I recently ordered a book from AbeBooks. The book was scheduled to arrive on July 26th. It has been a month since ordering the book and I have yet to receive it. The tracking for the book has disappeared and I can not contact the bookseller or USPS about where the book is. I will not be using this service again or recommending it to others. Don't waste your time.

After I ordered a hardcover book in good condition, AbeBooks’ partner delivered a softcover book in poor condition — see photo. After I demanded a refund or other resolution, they took days to get back with me. They then required that I drive to a post office to mail this nearly worthless book back to them. They provide no pre-paid postage. And there is no person you can call or email that I can find to resolve the situation. Terrible after-sale service!
