    I purchased a bible through this seller. It was is a beautiful bible, came as described. I had to soon return it because the print was too small for me. I didn't notice that as I was checking it out. I soon returned it. This seller was very good in communicating with me, taking the time to send pictures as I asked questions before make the decision. Customer service was over the top. It also came soon than expected and was wrappe perfectly. I wold 100% use this seller again!

    Value was great... The condition was as described. Seller shipped item(s) promptly, dropped off at the Post Office same day as order placed/payment went through, though it took 3 days past the longer "expected delivery" date - thanks USPS. The items were in a bubble mailer only, no additional packing material.
