Ya i do haha.
I was hoping for the handwritten ink as well.
But it is pre-printed.
But again, it is not so much about the signature right? or it is? Lolx.
My views are your Gilbert & Sullivan's:

After selecting the books that i want to buy, i have to move on to select the shipping method.
There are 3 shipping methods to choose from:
- $178 - USPS priority mail international
- $227 - USPS express mail international
- $172 -UPS worldwide expedited
The books that i am buying cost a total of $106, yet every single shipping method cost more than my books.
Is it a Must that i choose one of these shipping methods?
thanks, this is my first time trying to buy anything online. any help will be appreciated.
Some merchants charge low prices but high shipping fees because of the way they pay fees to their payment processors i.e. they may pay fees on the item price but not on shipping.
Essentially if they need to collect $100 from you they can charge $10 for the book and $90 for the shipping if their payment processors tax the book price but not the shipping. This used to be a common tactic on eBay and is still being used.
So pay attention to the total bill and don't get fooled by low book prices.

Can also buy MPH groupon voucher and get a 40% discount off.
Or you can go to 2nd hand book stores and buy brand new ones. However, they usually dont carry hard cover copies.
