    Price was right. Packed very well. As stated in post; “needs a chin pad”, but other than that it was a very good deal for a new mask. Great seller!

    Good book. Needed it for school. Taking a class on biblical exegesis. The book itself isn't in perfect condition, it has a little bit of wear and tear, but it's not that bad. If I was expecting perfect, I would have bought it new. That's not to say it's in bad condition. It's in pretty good shape. Praise God!
