    Item arrived promptly and was as exactly as described. Item was packaged extremely well. As someone who has bought a lot of books online only for them to arrived damaged, it was so refreshing to buy from a seller who actually cares about the condition the book arrives in. 10/10 seller would buy from again and would encourage you to do the same.
