Absolutely best book seller on eBay!!!!!! Book was flawless even though listed as preowned. Price was unbeatable and best value anywhere. Free shipping was a treat. Book arrived in less than 5 days & packaged very well. Flawless transaction would definitely purchase from this merchant again! 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Need Better Packaging, book was shipped only in plastic bag with no padding or protection. One corner poked through package and was slightly bent. Book was used and in condition as described and expected, even with the bent corner. Have bought books before from this seller and they were packed better. I am a giving a neutral response hoping other buyers are aware of the somewhat poor and inconsistent packaging from seller as that is what feedback is for.
