Here's how the last two books I ordered from amazon went: Book 1, low quality print barely readable code segments and the cover reads "Not for reprint outside of India". Book 2, over a month passes with no shipping update. I submit a cancellation request and it gets denied. I then contact customer support (extremely hard to do btw) and they also deny my request. Another week passes and it is randomly canceled and then the book arrives in the mail from a printing company with extremely bad binding.
