Product is 95% alike picture but a little more blurry. Controller play well but had a notice from psn that my joypad wasn't authentic and could by problematic🤷‍♂️ no trouble so far! Shipping was fast but no tracking and worst packaging ever.. like the box came banged up... send a question to seller never had a reply 😅.... Good product overall, excellent price, fast shipping, wrapped only on 4 sides out of 6, no tracking and never reply... 4★ product / 2★ seller ✌️

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!

  • Building With Logs by B. Allan Mackie

    I have read a number of other books on log home building even though I have learned much from them I think this may be the best. Mackie doesn't clutter the book with his opnions on chainsaws etc. He gets right down to the meat of building your own home. The chapter on setting the rafters is worth the price of the book. If your looking for a book about building a log home kit this is not for you. But, if your ready to head to the woods, drop some big sticks, and get to building your own home this is all you need.

  • good

    good. Just like the book i lost.....................
