Damaged goods

This book was bought as a fun gift for my son, however, the binding on the top is torn. While I will still give it to him it isn't really a gift now. I feel I am owed a partial refund.

A stupid book

There are a series of these books that have just appeared, Book of Bizarre Truths, Book of Unusual Knowledge, Book of Misinformation, several others. They are printed in China, they list no authors, no credits of any kind. The books are filled with a pastiche of pithy "knowledge ", like, Worldwide New Year Traditions, or, What Bill Gates Did Before He Was A Billionaire. It's like scrolling on your phone. They are not badly bound, they look good on your shelf, but that's not why you buy a book, is it? Don't buy these, they are stupid books.
