  • Excellent purchase

    I’d looked into getting the latest version of this dictionary from new but the cost was prohibitive, way over £200. This is still a very recent edition and although second hand, was in new perfect condition. I would happily have bought it as new. For £38, it was a bargain and I have already been using it extensively. It’s an excellent dictionary with so much helpful reference and grammatical support. I’m very pleased indeed that I bought it, and that it was such a fair price.
