    The condition of the book I received was exactly as described and the packaging used to ship it was chosen with care. My only issue was the cover of the book did not match the cover advertised (it was the correct book just an alternate cover design). I reached out the the seller to inquire about the cover mistake and without me even asking he refunded my purchase. Excellent customer service. I will donate the copy I received. Highly recommend this seller.

    Good overall experience. The book arrived in the condition described and even earlier than expected. The price and shipping were both very reasonable. However, the packaging could have been better, as it wasn’t very protective and the book ended up with a slightly bent corner from minor bumps during transit. Nothing major, but worth noting. Overall, a reliable seller, though with room for improvement in packaging.
