BA-II Plus Advance Financial Calculator, Dark Gray

is a good product

I needed this calculator for school, and none of my local stores had any. But, I was able to find it here for a good price and get it on time before classes began. Works as needed.

This seller has sent out my information to someone else, and I received the invoice of a Florida Apartment Complex. My item arrived damaged, and Walmart is not helpful with the return process. At first I couldn't find the calculator in the jumbled mess that was packaged, but it was stuck, under the bottom flap, to the tape! The most outrageous shipment I have yet to receive. Just go to staples for the calculator, if you want it in decent condition.

Like: Display intensity, solid feel of pressing buttons, extensive range of computation choices. Dislikes: Extremely light weight (decreases sense of quality), battery change requires disassembly, calculator resides in a plastic holder with tiny plastic corner nibs as resting points (would have preferred small rubber press-in dots, not stick-on, to keep item from sliding on hard surfaces), complex order of entries required to utilize TVM operations. Product cost $31 vs. $15 value.

This is a financial calendar for accounting, and was required by her college professor for the coursework. She has found it easy to use. There is a definite learning curve and the instructions are somewhat murky, but since she has access to her professor, it has been relatively painless. I was also happy it was reasonably priced for a specific calculator after shelling out mega bucks for graphing and other Specialty machines.
