    I would like to thank the seller for being so kind during the entirety of my purchase, and for the excellent shipping speed. For starters, they extended a warm message to me regarding my purchase, and how they (the seller) had just been returning from a vacation, stating that my ordered product would be shipped ASAP, which was incredibly kind! Shipping speed was incredibly swift, and I wouldn't have known either way. I definitely look forward to buying again from here, thanks!

    I purchased this book on a Sunday afternoon. Shortly after I ordered it, I reached out to the seller to see if he could get it shipped out the next day. Believe it or not he actually answered me on Sunday and also promptly shipped the book out on Monday as promised. My mom received the book on Wednesday just in time for her trip up north. The seller communication and extra effort that was put into this transaction definitely goes above and beyond. Thank you!!!
