MISLEADING PRODUCT
1 Star
MISLEADING PRODUCT
This is an intentionally misleading product. It is advertised and shown in the image as the original Ball Blue Book, but is, in fact, a different Ball product. What I received is the Ball Guide to Preserving (as pictured)- which you can buy at a lower price. I only purchased this one because I was seeking the original Ball Blue Book that they show in the seller's photo.
Thank you for your feedback
