    Item arrived as described. Seller took great care to ensure packaging was sufficient to protect hard covers in shipping. Greatly appreciate their flexibility with accepting my offers. Books condition, value and quality are all excellent. Seller assured cancelation and refund but had to contact back because they continued to process and NOT refund or cancel.

    I'm sorry, but there was no mention of a cancellation and refund. You were sent the five like new books at the prices we agreed to so this has got to be a mistake. Thanks and take care.

    I apologize. Per our messages I am adding a comment to clarify that everything pertaining to cancellation was not relevant to this order. The order was packaged with extreme care and the item arrived in impeccable condition. I greatly appreciate the care given and will definitely purchase again. Seller was great with communication and responded to offers and messages promptly.

    Can’t leave negative feedback for this seller for some odd reason;Don’t like to leave a negative review nor wasn’t going to until seller insisted I do;He got all bent out of shape when I reminded him to ship card after 4 days of payment sent;Seller has wrong attitude;Blames everyone else including me for his carelessness;He says this happens all the time but still blames everyone else;DON’T SELL ON EBAY IF YOU CAN’T SHIP ON TIME & TREAT YOUR CUSTOMERS LIKE THIS!!

    Thank you for your kind words. Apparently, because you have a tendency to leave negative feedback and shred every seller on here, jordanseveryday, eBay has limited your ability to disparage sellers anymore. When you bought this card on 4/15 eBay gave you a delivery date of 4/24 (arriving early, by the way) so I have no clue why you are this angry. If you are a buyer looking to do business with us, please contact me for a copy of this buyer's messages and you will see true lunacy.

    As described (like new). Shipped in padded envelope. Seller thoughtfully added bubble-wrap to DVD case interior to keep disks in position. Fast communication. Thank you!
