    Wow! This is a top-tier seller—shipping was very quick and item arrived days before it was estimated to. My books were packaged securely and with care. The items themselves were “used-like new” and look like they were just taken from the shelf in a store brand new. The price was very generous. I’m very happy and also impressed—what a great experience! Thank you! 😊
