- t***k (58)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThe book was finally delivered by USPS on May 20. This seller went out of her way to reply to my concern that Ebay claimed that the item had been delivered on May 19th, when it had not been delivered. The item was just as described. The seller packed the book in a way that ensured that it was delivered in good condition. Ebay caused a problem with this order when they sent an automated emailing stating that the item was delivered when USPS indicated that it went back to USPS.
