    Ordered from USA and arrived to me in UK about 10 days later. Book appropriately packaged and mostly as described. Was missing the cd as listed but communication with the seller was friendly and polite if not a little confusing - partial refunds are only offered after you start the formal eBay return request process, they aren't capable of giving refunds after simple messaging to customer service. All in all though, great value and a positive transaction. Would interact again 👍

    I have purchased quite a few books from this seller and my review will appear a few times because this seller is awesome! They accurately inspect and rate every book they sell - new and vintage. Fast delivery, books in great condition and better than described, prompt communication, books packed for maximum protection and all at a wonderful price! I highly recommend this seller! Thank you so much! I love that you re-sell used books! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    Unfortunately I received a damaged book, the item and the package both were damaged and it was clearly evident its appearance that it happened during transit. The seller was very understanding and gave me a full refund for the damaged book, though it was no fault of their own. Other than the damage, the book was as described, the quality and condition aside from the damaged spot was like new. The cost of the book was reasonable. I would definitely purchase from the seller again.
