be careful with the International editions (what you get from India and such).
I generally try to buy them in the US editions because I plan to keep them longer. however, occassionally I will buy one and it will say it is the US edition and it turns out to be the international edition.
another reason I steer clear of intl. editions is because sometimes the ink will smear across a page, rendering it useless and if it is a book that uses many small diagrams then the ink may smear there causing it to be unreadable.
however, I have only gotten 1 intl. book out of the 15 or so I have bought so far. Generally I get exactly what I expect, or something that far exceeds my expectations (as far as condition)
