Better World Books Sucks the Big One...

And now a little bit of news from the strange world of book buying: I recently purchased two books from Better World Books, a book on the history of Soviet music and Alexei Tolstoy's retelling of the Pinnochio tale. I enquired whether the books were ex-library. The response noted that the description said they weren't. A few days later, the Schwarz book on the history of Soviet music arrived and guess what, yup, it turned out to be ex-lib. But wait, the story of the Tolstoy book is even better. It was pictured as the English translation of the book and titled as the English translation of the book but it turned out to be the German language version of the book. Since I don't live in Munchen...Anyway, you have been warned, never buy from the incompetent bookseller known as Better World Books. They are flim flam capitalist hacks in a world of flim flam capitalist hacks. And now I am off to spend an hour dealing with THEIR incompentence without pay.
