Item description from the seller
Seller feedback (103)
- 1***0 (777)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThis item was shipped USPS Media Mail & in typical USPS fashion, it got lost & had arrived to me late. That should not be a discredit to the seller as the seller DID place the item in a very secure envelope & did not get damaged at all while in transit (it was wrapped in cardboard & bubble-wrap & could endure a trip to Alaska & back). This item is exactly as described, well photographed, & great value for the money spent. Great seller, highly recommended!!!!!!!!!!!!!!The Catholic Devotional, 2012 Paperback Pocket Edition (#316496371748)
- a***k (38)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseSeller was quick to respond (even over the July 4th holiday) and nice to speak with. The item took a while through usps but at no fault of the seller. Item was packaged well, it came exactly as it looked in the pictures and as described. I was excited to find a bottle of Trouble with some of the after shave still left in the bottle (although I know it won’t smell the exact same), but it smells like how my Dad used to smell and that’s priceless to me, so thank you.
