- j***n (29)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseI thought it was going to look better. Yes, it says used but it doesn't look the same as the picture in the description (3rd pic). But, it doesn't look too bad for as old as it is. It came in 3 days and I was happy to get it for almost the same price I paid for the copy I had almost 40 years ago and I was pleased with the free shipping. I wasn't too happy with the sticker I had to take off of it but an alcohol swab took care of the gummy residue it left when I took it off.
