  • Wonderful exchange!

    I left a 5 star across all categories via feedback, but upon handling my phone to submit I unintentionally placed my finger somewhere on my phone that changed the last category to 2 or 3 stars. It happened so quickly that I did not have a chance to adjust back to 5 stars when the screen disappeared. I am very happy with my new used book. It is in great condition! Thank you so much! 🎼💃🎵💌
