Was sent the wrong item. I ordered a CD and I received an LP instead. Two different places on the description said that it was a used CD in good condition. When I emailed the seller about it I got a generic reply telling me that they would get to it when they can and that if I send a second message it will just delay the process. That is terrible customer service. If they have time to send me an email message at all then they have time to initiate a refund or to answer the question I asked.

The book arrived in a plastic envelope with not protection and unfortunately it looked like the book was damaged in transit because of it. The items original ETA was April 18th but arrived on April 22nd. I requested a refund after seeing the quality of the book and the seller responded with a full refund and an apology for the quality. I really appreciated the customer service but was sad to see the book not in the quality described.

Thank you so much for the quick response and delivery. I have not ordered from eBay in many years. You have renewed my trust that there are some professional sellers I can work with through eBay not just Amazon. Thanks again!☺️

  • Good book

    Overall I like the text in this book. The derivations can sometimes be a little difficult to follow, but overall I find that this book is easy to read. It provides several examples in each section. The problems in this book can sometimes be difficult, but there are also easy ones. All the odd problem answers are given in the back of the book. I do not recomend buying the solutions manual for this book...it is one of the worst solutions manuals I have ever seen.

  • Diff. Eq Book

    Received as expected.

  • I'm sorry

    If you have to buy this book, I'm sorry. The first thing I did was to go borrow another book. This book doesn't give too many examples. Out of all the math and engineering books I've used, this one is poor. Its not the book that will help you to learn on your own or help you to work out the problems. If a professor wants you to buy this book, I wish you luck!

  • First Course in Differential Equations by Dennis G. Zil

    excellent differential equations book and would recommend it to all students and teachers not only as a book but as future reference. would also recommend to buy the answer key

  • Great!

    The book is ok. Basic explanations and worked out problems. It is the requirement for the curse. I haven't use any other book for differentials equations to tell you the true. I will said so far so good.
