- r***r (1942)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseMy DVD arrived on time, well packaged, the correct version I wanted and was in even better condition than described. I have bought DVDs from many Goodwill locations all around the US many times and always a wonderful experience. I highly recommend all Goodwill locations in US as Seller!!
- d***i (305)- Feedback left by buyer.Past yearVerified purchaseAmazing customer service! Seller quickly refunded even though I didn’t ask for a refund. What happened was I purchased a used book described as “good” condition (majority of pages undamaged) but I received a book heavily written in in pen on most pages. I took photos and let the seller know, but I didn’t ask for a refund because it’s Goodwill and I considered it a donation. But the seller immediately refunded my money, on a weekend no less. Amazing! Thank you!Piano Adventures - Scale and Chord Book 2 by Faber, Nancy paperback Book (#186693260510)
