    The seller shipped the book quickly, tracked for added security and it arrived on time. Around 3 weeks which isn't bad at all. The book was exactly as advertised by the seller. I had no problem comunicating with the seller, he answered all my questions. He also packed the book very well so it wouldn't get damaged during shipping. It arrived as good as new. I'm very satisfied, the seller showed a very customer friendly /professional attitude. Hence my 5/5 positive feedback to him.

    The price was perfectly reasonable for the product, and the book arrived promptly and in great condition—like new, as described: the slightest bit of noticeable use and that was it. The seller wrapped it in literally 6 layers of protection (cardboard, bubble wrap, waterproof, etc.), which seemed like overkill but was much appreciated. My wife was so impressed that she demanded I leave a positive review immediately—and she was right. I’d be happy to do business with this seller again.
