- k***8 (16)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseBook arrived as described in very good condition. Good value. It could have been wrapped better, with maybe some bubble wrap before it was just placed into a plastic envelope, because the end bent some due to shipping.From a Buick 8 by King, Stephen - Very Good (#156612370520)
- e***p (729)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseThe items itself was fine condition (as described) & a good value. As long as you don't care if the item arrives (or even ships) within the estimated time frame...or whether or not they reply to messages asking them why they haven't shipped yet, then this is a seller for you. They only engaged with a copy/paste message to say that they had a technical issue that delayed shipping...then made excuses about not replying to direct messages until after I opened issues on them due to being late.
