    The book was shipped without tracking - which was admittedly a bit stressful - but the communication with the seller was absolutely wonderful. They were understanding and gracious throughout. It took about six weeks for the book to arrive, but it was well packaged and in perfect condition. The appearance and quality of the book are pristine. You can absolutely order with con understand that the shipping may take a bit longer than what you may expect with a tracked shipment. Highly recommended.

    Previously purchased book from seller, package got mixed up in mail. Seller was quick to respond/help out and let me know when another book was available as well as discount it for my inconvenience. Book is exactly how described, I am very pleased with the seller, shipping time, and quality/condition of book!

    Shipped promptly. Minimal packing in plastic envelope and no bubble wrap. To the credit of the postal service the book was undamaged. Item as described. Lack of tracking information is common with this seller.
