    Item is as described. Poor communication from the seller regarding extremely slow shipping - had to contact eBay to get his attention to actually ship the item. With that being said, the seller provided a full refund for the item and still promptly sent the item. I believe shipping issue was probably an oversight because of the holidays and the seller did his best to make things right. I would not hesitate to buy from this seller again.

    Seller accepted two best offers, and then let the two books sit for two weeks, unnoticed. Only acted after I sent two messages asking for an update. Seller shipped one book and then refunded it. Then, refused to ship the 2nd book, but issued a refund. I could not recommend this seller as they had no sense of humor, and were rather dull in their correspondence--oh, and the huge delay, too. All around disappointing.

    Let me introduce you to the most petulant child we have been unfortunate enough to encounter over our long time selling on ebay. We made an error on the orders. Noted. As soon as we were notified we immediately shipped the first book and refunded the purchase. Because of the continuous ridiculous messages I also refunded the 2nd book and blocked them to make it just go way, Stear clear of this one at all cost.
