- p***m (271)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoA+ Highest Rating for this transaction. Nova Classic Volume 2 - Marvel / Paperback - condition & quality look really good, ALMOST NEW even better than described.

- t***2 (162)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoThis was a paperback/softcover 29 year old book I purchased in very good condition as described. However it was delivered in a plain white plastic envelope. They should have at least used a bubble pack lined shipping envelope for protection of the item inside. They should re-think their shipping & packaging strategies, especially with much much older delicate items. Other wise no problems whatsoever with seller. Recommended seller. A+
