    Excellent seller. Package was delayed ( by bad weather) and then misplaced at PO( placed in wrong box #) but I contacted the seller and they responded quickly and I got my item today. This seller went the extra mile and I would highly recommend them and will shop here again. I also want to say the price for this complete hard to find item was way below most of the other listings. Condition was good as stated, and although I've only watched the first disc it's quality is good. Thank you!!

    Purchasing form this company can at times be frustrating due to items never arriving, very low shipping time and the inability to track the items. But I gave them another chance and purchased many maps and books over the past few months and have received all of them. Last year, it was hit and miss. All items were in the condition as described. Packaging is minimal. The only downside is extremely slow shipping. I rate them a C+. Nothing to gloat about but eventually you will get what you wanted.

    WOW!!!

    This is one of the best books that I've read in about 25 years. Once I started reading this, I made sure that I got the 2 sequels to it before I even finished this one. I don't think I've ever read this type of book before - I'm not sure what genre it belongs to. Fantasy? Novel? Whatever, it was absolutely fantastic! I'd love to find a lot more books that are as good as this one was.

    Read "Miss Perigrine's Home for Peculiar Children" first, then couldn't stop! Ended up reading the entire trilogy. It is very easy reading with very enjoyable illustration and great characters! I'd recommend this series.
