    Shipping took an extra day or two but we finally got it. The book was in good condition just as listed. It was packed very well. I would definitely buy from this seller again. The best part was they sold the book had a great price. They weren't greedy like the rest. We really needed this book at a good price because this car is costing us a fortune LOL thank you so much for getting it out as soon as you did.

    Great item at a great price. I had been looking for one for a while. This fragile figurine was wrapped well in bubble wrap and other materials securely for shipping and arrived safe and sound. Very nice seller and I definitely would do business with again.
