Dvd arrived quickly and well packaged and taken care of. The item was listed as acceptable and met all of my needs but here's a quick description of what I got: Some wear is visible on the plastic sleeve on the outside of the case. The inside leaflet was still there! The disk has about 3 very notable scratches, although none are bigger than about 2 centimeters. Little to no grime anywhere on the product. Great service!

    Lesser Known History of a Seedy City

    I love Portland's twisted history. This book is a great starting point, from the Portland's mob involvement to the Shanghai tunnels, brothels and opium dens, gambling halls, the Kennedy Racketeering probe, on and on. Pick it up!
