- b***b (169)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoAfter two poor experiences with this seller, they exceeded my expectations with this order…hard to believe it was the same seller. The book purchased, identified in their listing as “Very Good”, was, in fact, “Like New”. The price was very fair. Shipping was slow, but that seems to be true with many things purchased in the internet. If I have a complaint, it is that the seller will not respond to specific questions about a listed item before the purchase..too many orders to do so! 🙁The Beginning or the End: How Hollywood―and America―Learned to Stop Worrying an (N° 387783000754)
- e***r (10)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoYou can’t always be sure when an item is listed “like new” but this seller delivered a book that is just that. I’m very pleased with the condition of the book and the pricing was excellent compared to other sellers online. It was packaged extremely well and arrived with no wrinkles or folded areas. I made a great purchase and I now look forward to purchasing additional items by this author from this seller. 10/10 satisfaction!The Power of A Praying Wife Omartian, Stormie paperback Used - Like New (N° 276668989218)
