Just what I wanted.
The book came. It was the book I ordered, it was in perfect condition, it had the attached CD, just like it promised, it was the version I wanted, and it was...green. Green is always good.

Problem, singular: I ordered one day shipping, because I felt that procrastination/failure to prepare on my part should be an emergency on their part. It did not come in one day, although I payed about $17.00 for shipping. It came within 5-6 business days. I'd be fine with that, if I had ordered "standard" shipping.

I voiced my obvious concern in the form of an email to customer service, and was responded to within ten minutes. While they couldn't go back in time and make sure it arrived in one day, they could, and did, compensate in another way, that was great, but I don't want to give all you other folks bad ideas.

The point is, I had one problem, and they solved it within 10 minutes. Everything's just dandy, and life is good. Other than taxes, government-run healthcare, Darfur refugees, AIDS, world hunger, and increasing socialism in America.

But that's beside the point.

I'd buy from Amazon again, and, in fact, already did. I'm a little slow when it comes to reviews.

Gosh, and thanks just so much for my exciting experience in doing business with you, Amazon! ... Read more
