    The book shipped and arrived very quickly. It was packaged adequately and in good condition, as described. The photo was accurate and the price was good. I was pleasantly surprised to find a poster of the cover art for the book included and folded in the back of it. The seller was very good and I'd be happy to purchase from them again in the future.

    Fantastic Seller! Great communication, sent actual photos of the Bible AND - LOWERED the PRICE for me! This is a very thick book of over 2000 pages (yes, 2K+) and was surprised it was just in a slightly padded envelope. The envelope had obvious damage including a tear along the Bible edge, may have let some moisture in - even dirt and wood chips embedded on one end of the envelope. Miraculously, the book looked very good once out. Very near MINT for a 31 year old book! Great! THANKS THANKS TY!!
