    SOLID (STAND UP) SELLER. - RESPONDED TO MESSAGE. - DELIVERY TIME GOOD. THINGS GO WRONG IN LIFE. BUT. THE ITEM DAMAGED in shipping was 1 out of 4 books in package. Rest were OK. SELLER REFUNDED the price of the dammaged book and made things right. Responded within 24 hours. Did the right thing. Would use again if I needed anything. FULL REFUND FOR THE DAMMAGED BOOK. All pictured books seemed acurate. If not for the damage the value would have been great.

    Same as in photo. Packaging could have been better, nothing but a flimsy plastic bag type envelope. Thankfully it arrived undamaged 🙌 and a day early. Fantastic value. Great seller. Thank you!
