    Expected delivery 1/31-2/6. Received on 2/1. Outstanding! I have never received a better packed book. Outstanding! Described as 'Very Fine'; to my untrained eye the book is closer to Mint, than Very Fine. I certainly received at least what I paid for if not more. I would not hesitate to do business this seller again and I would recommend, without question, this seller to any prospective buyer.
