      The item is in great shape. As described. It took about 21 days to arrive here in Kansas. Not sure where it shipped from. But free shipping can mean longer wait time -sometimes. It arrive safe in these plastic white shipping bags. *Did purchase another item already because price and suggestion was timely for it. Thanks so much. Good job. Recommended seller! if you don't mind wait time. But get good deal! Thx again!

      This is an excellent audiobook written by Michael Connelly. Although it was listed as being in very good condition, it arrived with the box smashed flat in a padded envelope. It had a lot of other damage, multiple stickers, etc. The seller quickly adjusted the price after I contacted them, however, which I appreciate.

      Super smooth transaction all the way around from a super seller. Communication in form of tracking. Shipped lightning fast. Arrived in plastic envelope. Inspection shows SC book in excellent condition and appearance, well worth the quality and value of the product. Highly recommend this seller as one of the best on eBay and a must use. I will purchase from again should the opportunity arises.

    • Classic guide to writing nonfiction

      I am reviewing the seventh edition of this very well designed guide to writing. I chose it because I was not interested in advice on how to market my writing, as is the wont of competition.
