Item description from the seller
Seller feedback (64,115)
- n***2 (422)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseZoom books shipped in a plastic bag, but doubled the bag. I was relieved to see the interior bag, as the exterior bag was rubbed, stretched, had multiple holes. Books arrived okay, but I wish all the book sellers would offer a buyer the option of paying more for cardboard to protect the books, especially the corners. Many used books are vintage, and it's a shame to dent their corners in shipping. Books were as listed and a good value, and correct items sent.

It looks brand new and I am very Happy with the enIRE EXPERience. The seller took the precautions of having it shipped quick;y and wrapped to make sure it would not be damaged in shipping.
