- e***l (741)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseOther than the poor packaging in flimsy plastic bag that arrived torn and slightly damaged the edges of the book, the item arrived in a timely fashion. It was not in the condition described on the listing mostly because of the poor packaging. All things considered, the seller left feedback right away, which many sellers don't even after receiving, and communicated with the buyer showing good customer service, therefore the positive feedback. I strongly suggest improving your packaging procedure.Electric Body, Electric Health, McKusick, Eileen Day, Very Good Book (#326945978919)
