Once I figured out where to look for things, it was quite simple. Thanks. I don't shop online much.
They had the book I needed.

Shipping cost seems high. It should be based on the actual weight of the book, not a flat price.

Very efficient way to find used books, and to save the planet by buying them rather than new ones!

I haven't shopped on Alibris in many years, but am pleased that it was even easier than I recalled.
Because it one of only two booksellers that had the item that I wanted.
Date of experience: September 22, 2023
Just placed order. So far so good. Now hoping I will get this mailed to be as you indicated..
The original book I was using after the original owner, my son Randall was using every day. He died due to cancer in Jan 2020 at the age of 47. I accidently put it in the washing machine mixed with bed sheets and was destroyed. I now only have the cover.

I cannot view any seller's reviews right now. That makes is difficult to shop and who to buy from.

Effortless. So lovely to use a site that works so well. I will be back for more. Many thanks.
I couldn't find this particular book, for a price I could afford in a hardback and very good condition, at either Amazon or ThriftBooks. So I tried Alibris and am happy I do.
