Schrader’s Books New, straight from the publisher. Still in the publisher’s original shrink wrap. We just pulled this from the packing crate. Never been opened. All books are shipped within two business days or less; from the USA; in a box, not a bag. All pictures of used books are of the book that we have in stock. We only use stock photos for new books from the publisher. We do not engage in bookjacking, and will not knowingly support any seller who does. Not familiar with bookjacking? It is a huge but subtle scam. At least half of the books offered for sale today on the net don’t really exist. They are actually copies of offers from another seller, but with the price jacked up. Google ‘bookjacking’.
