    Great experience purchasing from them. The item arrived so well packed and secured that it took me around 5+ minutes just to open fully. Condition was as advertised (photos were accurate), price was exceptional, and the item was delivered ahead of schedule. I hope to be able to buy from them again!

    Items came exactly as described. All of the Blu rays and steelbook look fantastic. I am very happy with the quality of the product. The value I got, for the condition of the items is fantastic. I was able to make use of a “buy 8, get 50%” deal, which made the value quite incredible actually. Items were packaged professionally and shipped with care. All items were individually bubble wrapped and shipped in a box. Shipping was fast via USPS with tracking. I would do business with the seller again

  • A book of beautiful Victorian dresses

    If you love to look at old vintage photography or Victorian era dresses you will love this book. It is filled with clear photos on nice paper. Each photo has a brief description and each chapter has a description of the fashion for that style/decade and a little on day to day living in that period. I bought it for reference and inspiration for my sewing. It is a great photographic reference book for sewing historically accurate dresses. This book combined with antique fashion plates and historical patterns is very useful for sewing. Basically it’s helpful to see photos of the real thing.
