I don’t know about that purchase in particular. Probably you should look at it and see what kind of warranty you get. But I’ve bought a lot of books and DVDs from Amazon as well as such things as a Japanese pole pruning saw and a hydraulic log splitter, and they’ve always been very good about things.
They replaced some books that vanished in the mail, no charge or argument about it. And they allow you to return books any time if there’s a problem.
I got the log splitter from them because it was about half the price offered anywhere else. So, my general experience with them has been excellent.
That is amazing about the log splitter!
