I've used Saints book for quite some time now but always had to borrow it from the library. A few months back I ordered a copy for myself and last week I finally had a chance to get it from the bookshop. To my dismay, the paper and print quality of this copy is much less then the one I had from the library. The pages seem thinner and on some the print is barely legible. Is there a second, lesser quality print or is it just me?

I'm not aware of any second runs or lesser quality editions. I'd guess, but do not know for certain, that you ended up with a bad copy. I'd ask if they can send you a replacement?

I will, but the problem is that the local bookstore has to order it in the US which took them long enough the first time.

Maybe it's a 'bootleg'? I know while in college, some of the students would order 'bootleg' textbooks from India... they'd be different, soft cover instead of hard, and lacking all copyright information.

I don't think so, I ordered it at acmamall which is the local version of amazon.
