Item description from the seller

- 4***- (8)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchasePrompt replies from the seller. Was expecting shipping to take at least a week but it was delivered in 3 days. The books were packaged well. They are in great condition, exactly as described and pictured. Some were in better condition than expected, practically brand new. Compared to buying them separately, or buying other sets that I've seen, this was a great value for the lot. Very satisfied with this purchase!
- m***0 (392)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseAwesome book with great value and amazing quality. The condition of the book upon arrival was exceptional and definitely came as described by the seller. The appearance was on point and the book was unscathed while going through transit. The shipping was good and the package had accurate tracking information while in transit. Thank you to the seller for a great transaction and experience. I look forward to doing business with you again in there future!
- t***e (290)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseI was very impressed with the super fast shipping by this seller, and the used book was exactly as described, and represented great value and was in good condition, and very well packaged. I appreciated that they carefully wrapped the book in bubble wrap and sent it in a box whereas other sellers use much flimsier packaging for used books.HEALING POWER OF BALANCED EMOTIONS -vintage -By Frederick W.
