    Excellent transaction, best packing of a book i have ever had - softcover book wrapped in paper, then wrapped in cardboard for protection and shipped in sturdy cardboard packaging, Book in perfect mint condition as new should be, fantastic price for a book which often sells for much higher price when available. Highly recommend this seller !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
