Reviews
"I think A Farewell to Arms is Hemingway's greatest novel, the truest. It's also heartbreaking." --Edna O'Brien "We can't seem to stop using a certain kind of elevated, heroic language about war and it is our duty always to puncture it. No one has ever done that as eloquently as Hemingway, through the accumulating weight of his sentences, and the emotional clarity, the disgust and also the reverence for what has been done." --Tobias Wolff

    Items arrived in a well packed strong box. Individual items were packed tightly in bubble wrap and snug, no breakage! There was an issue with one of the four bottles received and that was resolved with a refund for the one bottle that same day. This seller took care of my concerns quickly, and I thank them for how well they responded to my issue. I would purchase from them again! Thank you for making things right. They have many sales for almost 25 years, that says something. . . Stability!

    Shipping was as expected: Less than a week. The packaging was very well protected. The quality was as advertised: in sound, excellent, or mint condition. The value was exceptional, That's why I bought it, and the appearance was satisfactory. It's great when a seller delivers what they advertise. I will buy from this seller again.
