- l***t (453)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseItem arrived as stated in used but good condition. It was a great price for used. A new copy would have cost a lot more. It was shipped out fast and arrived in secure envelope. Seller did a great job with this entire transaction. I’m very happy with seller and would order from them again. Thank you seller, great job. A+. JL
- s***t (181)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThere was a mixup during packaging where a paperback copy was picked and shipped for a hard cover copy that was ordered. I asked the seller about it and they honestly replied that the mistake was on their end. A full refund for the item was sent immediately and I will not hesitate to order more from ZBK. Very responsive and they stand behind their items and make good on any issues.
