    Great seller, item as described if not better. It was a great value as I was not only buying the book I remember, but it is long out of print in this format. The item arrived packaged very well and protected, and the shipping was reasonable. I would definitely buy from again.

    This was a wonderful experience! The item is beautiful, exactly as described and even though there was a delay due to weather they still arrived very quickly. Also, the packaging was perfect! They were packed tight in bubble wrap and unable to move around at all. This is one of my favorite sellers!

    Accurately described and shipped quickly. Book was wrapped in bubble wrap and placed inside a sturdy shipping box in order to survive the rigors of the shipping torture test. It arrived safely and intact and I am grateful for the sellers extra care. Thank you. This is the perfect ebay seller. A+++++A+++++A+++++.
