Communication from the seller was clear and timely, making the transaction smooth and reassuring. Shipping was fast, and the book was packaged with care to prevent any damage. Overall, a fantastic purchase experience from a reliable seller. Highly recommended for anyone looking for quality books on eBay.

purchased the book “my feelings are like wild animals: how do I tame them?” I got it here because the price was $4.72. Condition is as described. The book was bent which likely occurred during shipping, because it was shipped unprotected, by itself. I wish it was shipped in protective cardboard or in a bubble wrap envelope (like other books from eBay.) Fortunately it’s easy to flatten out the bend by putting something heavy on top of the book. Therefore I’ll purchase from this seller again.
