- i***b (3056)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseThis was an outstanding buying experience and a great value. The book was shipped promptly and intelligently. Being a softcover book (and a thick one), it required extra care in its preparation for shipment. The seller carefully wrapped the book in clear Saran-type wrap, and then made sure it was completely protected by a heavy cardboard box. It was a preowned book, and yet appears "as new." It was described as being LIKE NEW, and that's completely accurate! Excellent, thank you, five stars!
