Recently ordered SIX books from INTERNATIONALBOOKS over the course of a two-week period. Ads rated all as Very Good, no defects disclosed. ALL arrived in at Acceptable to Unacceptable Condition.

Amazon [Advertising & Listing]Guidelines for New and Used Books:

INTERNATIONALBOOKS sells on Amazon.com but does NOT adhere to Amazon's Used Book Condition guidelines. Does not disclose any defects and the books are significantly distressed. Inflates book condition by two to three grade levels to achieve sales. Uses Amazon to dump otherwise unsaleable books in poor and unacceptable condition but advertising ALL of them as Very Good. Does not respond to emails requesting remedy. Poor value. No service. LET THE BUYER BEWARE.

It was necessary to file an Amazon claim and contact Amazon Customer Service in order to get my money back. This entity should not be allowed to sell online.

I collect LN & VG children's books. Not trash. Ethical and honest book sellers rate book condition correctly and disclose ALL book defects.
