    A used CD was purchased and shipped on 4-14 and delivered by USPS Media Mail on 4-17. Item received was like new as described in the listing and was professionally packaged for shipping. Case was sealed in a plastic sleeve and shipped in a cardboard box for protection. Disc, booklet, and case were like new, a very cared for item. The condition of CD received, the care in packing, reasonable price, and fast shipping and delivery made for an excellent purchasing experience with Lake Country Books.

    AAAA++++ SELLER!!!! Book is better than described! Condition seems brand new; an amazing value at this price and for this type of quality (I hate these eBay"suggestions" about what we should say in reviews, but I guess it helps the algorithm 🙄). Shipping was very fast and book was extremely well packaged in a nice box. My highest recommendation for Lake County Books and More! I'll absolutely be buying from them again. Thank you-

    Item arrived in perfect condition very quickly - I had sent a message asking it to be sent out ASAP for my anniversary this weekend and it arrived today, days earlier than quoted. Thank you so so much! Great seller, would buy from again. :D
