This is 100% the best looking book I've ever received. It was packaged in layers of bubble wrap and the cover itself is wrapped in mylar. Everything was exactly as described and absolutely perfect. The authors signature on the title page made me a little emotional from the nostalgia of reading this in school in the 00s. It wasn't too expensive, shipped extremely quickly, and even had a little note saying "thank you". Booksellers are the real gentlemen (gentlewomen) of the Internet.
Thrilled to replace a long lost Christmas present! Accurately described. Great value. Packaging was a *little* overkill in terms of what I need to dispose of, but the portfolio WAS well protected. My only minor, technical, issue was the shipping label on the box was missing my ID number as listed on the invoice which made more work for my delivery people. Aside from that MINOR glitch, A1 service.
Wonderful seller! Quick to respond to messages and shipped timely. Packaged extremely well and my books arrived safely and as described. Price point was perfect and im very happy with my purchase!
