 Satisfied with their mistake October 9, 2008

I ordered this world map and shipping was very quick and arrived (rolled) in perfect condition, there was just one problem... I received a US map in the mail instead of the world map I ordered. Obviously I e-mailed about the return policy, and I was prepared for the headache of having to return a $4 map.
Then next day I got an e-mail back apologizing for the mix-up. My money was refunded and I did not have to send back the US map. The only thing I had to do was order the world map again (and the price had gone down on it).
So not only did I get the product I wanted (this one also arrived quickly, but had gotten slightly crunched in the mail), I got a free US map also, due to their mix-up.
I was very satisfied with the policy of not making customers return items that would cost more to send back than they are worth, and the prompt reply I received to my e-mail.
I would recommend this seller, and the maps (while not laminated) are HUGE, colorful, very detailed, and look great on my wall!
 World Map October 6, 2008
The map was just as the description listed however it is shipped in a cheap cardboard poster box and arrived crushed making it unusable for my intended use. It has been relegated to the corner by my desk and will most likely become a donation or garage sale item. Luckily it wasn't too expensive.

It looks nice and I'd love to hang it on my wall but Amazon mailed it to the wrong address and now will not take action to get it to me. They should send me a new one.
Nice Map August 14, 2008

This is a very nice map for the price. Good clear text and all the major cities. However, my only complaint is that it came flat in the mail. So there are creases every inch or so that I cannot get out. I suggest this should be shipped in a hard tube. Take your chances.

I would have bought it at a higher price too (also- surprisingly colorful!) June 6, 2008

This is a great map and not just because of its price. I was looking for a map that was updated, large, and colorful. And that's exactly what I got.
I actually like the fact that the map is not the paper typically used for posters (it feels more like printer paper) because there isn't a glare effect from light; useful because I'd rather not have to shift, twist, and turn just to read it. Also, the quality doesn't strike me as being any lower. You can always laminate it as well- we have a similar map that is laminated and (if you don't mind the glare) it looks very, very nice.
I have to reiterate how colorful this map is! A good buy for anyone, especially those who will use it fairly often and beyond "decoration."
