   Book arrived November 16th and I ordered it on November 6th but it did not leave wearhouse within 24 hours as promised. The book was in excellent shape and I almost got it for free due to the ridicously low price. My only complaint is that the seller and/or the USPS does not provide any Tracking information to know when the package will arrive. If you are not anxious to keep up with your packages travels, then this seller will not disapoint you. If you are like me and want to know when a package will arrive, you may want to chose another merchant.

   Not all Wii programs are as intuitive as you might expect. Plus, there are hints that one can apply to make the games easier to get into and perform with some initial level of understanding. Wii for Dummies did just what I wanted by giving me a reasonable degree of info on the nuances of each game so I could get into them without looking like a klutz.
