    Zoom books shipped in a plastic bag, but doubled the bag. I was relieved to see the interior bag, as the exterior bag was rubbed, stretched, had multiple holes. Books arrived okay, but I wish all the book sellers would offer a buyer the option of paying more for cardboard to protect the books, especially the corners. Many used books are vintage, and it's a shame to dent their corners in shipping. Books were as listed and a good value, and correct items sent. GOOD SELLER.

    The book that I ordered was unfortunately damaged in transit (it looked like a heavy box had been dropped on it corner-first, digging a deep gouge out of the cover and through several pages). When I contacted the seller about it, they went above and beyond, immediately refunding the cost of the item. I was pleasantly surprised by their kindness, and would order from them again in future (though hopefully they'll use sturdier packaging next time!)

    Purchased this as part of a multi-book sale. I paid a fair price. Book arrived in the condition as a described. Basic shipping wrapping of double plastic bag around items. Took slightly longer to arrive due to being located on the other side of the United States from me. I'm happy with this purchase. Thank you.

    Book came as advertised - in good condition. Bought for my daughter so can't speak as to the content being compelling or not.
