    My apologies for the delayed feedback! This was an easy transaction with quick shipment. The book arrived exactly as described – used, but perfectly readable for this novelization. I appreciate the secure packaging that ensured its condition wasn't jeopardized. The shipping delay was entirely due to the USPS misdelivering it, not the seller, and they were incredibly understanding when I explained the situation. Highly recommend! A++++

    I bought two books from this seller and both experiences were exceptional. Their customer service and attention to detail with shipping and packaging both books was outstanding. It’s surprising at how fast the books were shipped that they were able to package them so well that they arrived in perfect condition and ready for me to enjoy! They are by far one of my favorite sellers and I recommend them to any buyer.
