So check out the images zoom in for the condition and the details and please message me if you have any questions at all, I'm happy to help. Also this is from a smoke-free home and smoke-free environment. The book I believe is new and unread, it is certainly a new condition, however I'm marking it as like new. Shipping is USA only and this will be shipped via USPS Media Mail. Besides based on the total weight, the actual cost of shipping is also based on distance from me here in NY and is automatically calculated when you are logged into your eBay account. The postage rate/amount is set by USPS, UPS, FedEx etc. I take very good care in shipping the few items I sell safely and quickly, and I take pride in providing excellent service, as I'm mainly a buyer here who buys random stuff (sometimes too) impulsively on eBay and I know what it's like to have a seller that doesn't pack something well, or doesn't communicate, or waits a week or more to ship something you've purchased. So I try to give the excellent communication and service that I like to receive as a buyer. And while this isn't a job for me, and I don't sell a ton of items, I've has this eBay account since February 2000 and I do take it very seriously and will make sure your item has lots of photos, is described very truthfully and accurately, is packed well, and shipped fast and safely. I'm happy to add signature confirmation, or any other service (at your cost, in most cases) if you have any problems with package delivery at your home or apartment.
