I received today the latest Assimil German with ease ,,, bought through
Amazon UK ,,, as i was checking the comic pictures of the book
and i found that the writings of the comic pictures are not
well printed in my book ,, and part of the
letters are missing to the point i can't seem to
know some of the letters in the writings ...
of course not all the pictures but really
handful and it's really irritating and
disappointing ...
so i wanna ask u guys ,,, does anyone have the same
problem ??
thanks in advance ...

Contact Amazon. They should either give you a refund or send you another copy.

I've noticed this with other books I've had from amazon, I think some of them are
seconds. Either that or they have minimal quality control.

I have the 1987 edition and I also found some words in pictures hard to read, but I dont mind becouse those sentences ara always draw from dialogs so it's easy to track.

it turned outthat not only the pictures but some exercises as well ,,,
I've contacted assimil and i feel that they seem to know about this issue ,,,
& informed me that their courses are being reprinted ,,, & as soon as
they get them ready ,, [ cuz i think they pulled the corrupted copies out
& on their website it says out of stock ] they'll send me a good one ...
Still waiting 4 them ...
I'll keep u posted guys ...
