Wrong item policy
We verify all items via ISBN, so in case the ISBN on the book received is different than the one stated in the order, even if the items have similar titles or covers, the quote will be adjusted. To avoid such issues, please remove all stickers from the books you plan to ship. Such stickers may carry the incorrect ISBN placed on the book by the previous seller.
When received at our warehouse, all stickers will be removed, and the book will be processed according to the ISBN printed on the book or its copyright page.
