    Arrived earlier than expected, and in perfect condition! So no surprise defects/damages, it’s exactly as it appears in the listing. I really appreciate the extra care taken for the packaging to make sure it wouldn’t get damaged during shipping. Not to mention being able to get a fairly rare item for a reasonable price. Thank you very much!

    Book arrived in stellar condition! Was packaged well and shipped quickly. The book's condition was as described, maybe a little better. Best value for the out of print volume I ordered. Will definitely purchase from this seller in the future!
