    Received the original print of Zane Grey's book " The Spirit of the Border " quickly, in very good condition, as described and at a very reasonable price. The seller wrapped it up very well for shipping with about five different layers of protection which really helps ensure it will arrive with no damage considering the book is 119 years old !! Thank you folks at KnacksofNicks. I will likely buy from you again soon.

    KnacksofNicks is an established A+ EBay seller! I purchased a vintage Ohio Art sand pail, shown in the attached photos. This item was good value for its great condition, well packed and shipped quickly. The sales listing description and photos were 100% accurate, as well. I highly recommend this honest, experienced and reliable eBay seller!!
