  1. Andrew Halld

    The quality, condition, value and appearance was what I was hoping for. The book came in excellent condition, also it was exactly like the picture and description that was illustrated from the seller. It came in a timely manner 3 days ahead of time. I received notification about the book tell me it shipped but I received no tracking number so I read a few comments and realize that some of the other buyers had the same issue. To other buyers be patient it will come and in my case it came early.

    Reliable SELLERS like this one are the reason why I’ve started using and following these professionals on eBay and have left the terrible Amazon shipped products. Absolutely 100% perfect transaction. Item arrived earlier than expected, well packaged and in absolutely MINT appearance and condition!!! Amazon would learn a thing or two when it comes to businesses like this where the price is right and the item actually arrives as described and in perfect collector's quality. A+!!!
