    Excellent, excellent seller! Ordered this book and within 15 minutes I got an eBay message from the seller stating he shipped the book, hopes I’m happy with the purchase and thanked me for a quick payment. The comic arrived in great shape and the seller even took the time to place the book in a fresh board and bag. Can’t tell you how much that means to me to have the pleasure of this great customer service. Thanks again and highly recommended!
