    I had a bad experience with this seller. I received and empty envelope with damage done to a bottom corner which had been repaired. I sent pictures showing envelope and damage. She alleged that I opened the envelope from the bottom and took the item out. Envelope was never opened. I finally contacted eBay support and explained everything. They believed me and gave me a refund. I don't recommend this seller to anyone. She didn't even try to believe me.

    The seller was extremely nice and patient, was willing to try his best to deliver the order as fast as possible due to a deadline on my end. The packaging was sufficient and the book was delivered in the same condition as it was described and seen in the pictures. The price was fair for the book and I am very satisfied both with the order and with the seller. Thank you for making it a great experience and the perfect gift!
