    This book is fantastic! The quality is exactly as described, it’s in great condition, the appearance is clean and basically brand-new, and it came at an excellent price. This is a first-rate, five-star seller that deserves everyone's business. They packaged the book with extreme care, shipped it quickly. This was an excellent buying experience and I wouldn't hesitate to buy from this seller again.

    Amazing customer service! Seller quickly refunded even though I didn’t ask for a refund. What happened was I purchased a used book described as “good” condition (majority of pages undamaged) but I received a book heavily written in in pen on most pages. I took photos and let the seller know, but I didn’t ask for a refund because it’s Goodwill and I considered it a donation. But the seller immediately refunded my money, on a weekend no less. Amazing! Thank you!
