    I'm not at home, but I was told my book arrived and the package is in bad shape.

    Your package looks way better than mine.. Looks like could have potential survivors.

    Yes, I was lucky (after almost 60 days). The book is perfect.

    This was the clue I used to try to track down a anomaly version.... Ordered book from STRAND $13.49 + $3.99 =$17.48 gamble.
    Book arrived today .
    at this point in time THE PACKAGE IS STILL UN-OPENED.

    Well done. Hopefully the sticker on the front can be easily removed.

    I think with patience and a blow dryer to heat the sticker up, it can be removed.

    I don't mind the stickers.. I think it helps add to the provenance of the books journey.

    We now know that STRAND got the books on 12/20/16.Simon & Schuster is also based in N.Y. so these could have been the 1st ones sold.

    Always remove the price stickers. After a while the chemicals in the glue seep out leaving a stain on the cover.

    Edit: The new Strand stickers do remove easily. I remember the old ones were a bitch. I actually complained to them about it.

    I for one would like to know why so many were WATER DAMAGED.... Chewed up by a machine I can understand...But left out in the rain? Did a truck over turn and they spent the night in a snow bank? Is it just DROOLfrom people that missed out on getting THIER orders in on time?

    I've also been intrigued by what happened for the books to have ended up this way. And of all the books they must ship out, it had to be this one didn't it.

    Another rip off.... I will not buy anything remarqued by Chadbourne now... ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. Your 100% right.
