- m***w (1152)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Mes pasadoCompra verificadaArrived in Perfect Condition because it was packaged well......in a heavier envelope inside one of those flimsy plastic ones. A+ for packaging. Good price as well. The mailman tried his best to mess things up since I also got several other packages (it was like Christmas!!), but the packaging saved the day. Would definitely buy from again. Superb seller!

I appreciate the attention they put into my purchase and I would happily buy from them again. I got a high quality, beautiful book for a great value price. Thank you so much.
