    Book arrived today, 2 days before deadline given by the seller. Well-packaged & in good condition. Price was very competitive, & the book was accurately listed. Great communication. I appreciate the seller getting back to me when I was having trouble tracking the book's delivery progress. Apparently there were 2 different tracking numbers - one in Canada & the other in the U.S., since it was initially shipped from Canada. Thank you very much for your quick response & helpful information.

    Seller handles a massive inventory so I give them grace on the slow processing and shipping. They were very communicative and prompt with their response when I messaged in asking about it. Book was in good condition as described. Small ding on the page edges which wasn't mentioned, but that's fairly common even at your typical book store. Still a good value and I'd buy from them again.

    AMAZING SELLER!!! Package was reported as delivered but I wait a few days and search the yard and all around the house outside and inside and the package was no where to be found. I reached out and explained to them what happened and they’re sending me another! Ira not often you find a business that would do something like this! They easily could have said well sorry! But no, amazing and I am so grateful and will absolutely be shopping with them again! Thank you!!!
