    This book was a Father's day gift for my father-in-law and it arrived exactly as described. It was ordered on Tuesday and arrived on Thursday, in plenty of time to gift on Sunday. It was well packaged and obviously shipped promptly. Hubby and I are pleased and would highly recommend this seller! Thanks for a great shopping experience!

    This transaction was decent overall. The book was described as "new" and yet it obviously was not. However, it was still in very nice condition, so no big deal I suppose. The packaging left a lot to be desired though and I was surprised that the book arrived relatively undamaged.
