    Very friendly seller, this book is BETTER than described. Packaging was overkill just to make sure item arrived undamaged and in perfect condition. Great to work with this seller. Will highly recommend but don't go purchasing any of the books I still have my eyes on. Outstanding communication and fair price reduction to satisfy both purchaser and seller
