      Absolutely fantastic seller with brilliant communication. The books have been heavily wrapped and protected for transport, which I belive is really important. The books are immaculate. I will absolutely be using this seller again. This is a seller that really has gone the extra mile and cares about the books they're selling. Thank you 😊

      This was an expensive book but it is a very specialist subject, the description was accurate and I think the book was well worth the price. The delivery and packaging were good too.
