Fantastic communication, excellent packaging and prompt shipping. Detailed explanation of book condition, and in my opinion, even better than described. Price? Tremendous value! Shipping cost? I thought it was a little high till I considered the cost of the packaging material and container to ensure a secure delivery, so appreciated the details to service
