- l***0 (112)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThese sellers must be pros. I ordered a signed 1st/1st, and very much appreciated that it arrived as if it had been sent to me by one of the indies from which I order collectible editions. Not only was the shipping fast, the packing was outstanding — a sturdy cardboard envelope in which the book was wrapped in both plastic and paper. I could not be more pleased and will happily recommend this seller to others. Thank you, Turgid Tomes.
