- b***r (7)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseWhile technically the pages are fine the back hard cover is ripped. I don’t really mind, I’m just surprised it wasn’t mentioned. I’m not sure this could be classified as good condition. Perhaps it got torn during shipping but the box it arrived in wasn’t damaged at all.
