Default pages falling out

The pages are falling out of my service manual.

Only had it since last december. Probably opened it 3-4 dozen times.

Anybody else get one of these inferior items???

I've had several books do this to me.
A quick call to the publisher has always resulted in a brand new one being sent out to me on their dime.
They didn't even want the old one back or a reciept.

I would give the publisher a call and see what happens...

You should have gotten the synthetic one. I hear it stands up to the heat better.

I just bought one the other day and was kinda amazed at how poorly it was bound. I was thumbing though it on the throne last night and was wondering if the pages were gonna start falling out......

Only took the book in the sh1tter once.

Stained a page, but I do not think any got to the glue.

edited to add:

I'm gonna take it back in there now,

look at page 2.

see if it falls out.

Called my kinkos they said spiral binding a book over one inch thick is $5.99.

Called my parts man and he said bring it back.

Will get the new book and take it straight to kinkos.
