    (Same review for all 3 items in my order) Seller provided good value in the pricing of these books -- as well as offering a significant discount for ordering multiple items. Who could resist? I ended up not only with the book I was looking for, but also two others I never knew I'd always wanted! :-) The package arrived quickly, and safely since it was well-packed. Everything is as depicted, of course. I'm definitely happy with the results - thank you!

    The book arrived promptly in very good packaging and as described. The only thing that I would've liked more was for the book to come with an additional plastic covers like the other items in the parcel, however, the experience was still outstanding and the condition as described. Overall, the quality of the product for the price was outstanding. I am very thankful to this seller and their business!
