    The Devil Wears Prada DVD arrived in great condition and as described in the description. All items that were listed as widescreen appear to actually be widescreen. I received a good quality product at a great price. This seller, Greenworld Books, shipped quickly via USPS and took care in the packaging. I've enjoyed everything I received from this seller so far. I'm very happy with my purchase and will purchase more from this seller in the future.
