    This seller is great! My order came very quickly and everything was in fantastic condition. Plumcirclebooks shipped my order only a few days after ordering. When it arrived, I was happily surprised to see they even added little plastic corners in the package to protect the sides of the books ;v; like thank you for protecting these books in the mail. They are in fantastic shape, I would say better than described in the description. I have just placed another order xD thank you I highly recommend.
