    The seller was kind enough to send me a USPS tracking number so that I could have a good idea as to when I’d receive my item. It came a day later than expected (probably due to the cold snap and snow storm here) and the seller was quick to respond when I voiced my concern on its arrival. It was packaged very well, no water damage or dings. Would recommend buying books from this seller!

    This seller deserves excellent ratings. While there was an error and they ended up not having my item, they were so professional with resolving the issue. They were honest about the mistake. They were genuinely apologetic and and handled the refund right away. They communicated well and I would definitely trust them with a purchase in the future.

    My item shipped, but I never received it. I contacted the seller, and the seller quickly responded and offered to ship another with a deep discount. I requested a refund, and the seller quickly obliged, and refunded money promptly. I would buy from this seller again!
