- r***y (676)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThis was a tremendous experience. My book arrived individually wrapped, with careful padding and a box, seemingly just days after my order. I couldn't be more impressed with the service. Shipping was actually more than the seller charged me, but they spared no expense in making sure everything arrived safely. Communication was also on point. Exactly as described, and a great price to match. Please buy with total confidence. This seller is a professional in every sense.Edward Abbey, Desert Solitaire, 1988, Hardcover, DJ (#356522045420)
