  1. Would reccomend this seller 110%! messaged me to verify I was certain and happy with what I was buying and checked in regularly to ensure I was never confused on when the package was due or shipped! When I was out during the delivery, the seller went out of their way to ensure I was kept up to date on the redelivery and tracking info! Recieved safely and all products were pristine condition! Securely packed and good value for money - even came with freebies :) very high quality would buy again!

  2. I had a ‘90s copy. I was excited about the new edition. With a new forward by J Wasserman and intro by LM DuQuette. The book was excellent value and it arrived in perfect condition as it was sold new. A gorgeous looking tome.I gave 5 stars for the description, I had no communication with the seller and only gave 4 stars for Dispatch Time. Dispatched on Nov 4th with the last day being tomorrow. The process was great. Highly recommended. I’ve done business with these guys and will continue to.

  3. I love these diaries but they can be a little expensive. However this was a good price from this seller and I would definitely use this seller again. Excellent communication. The delivery time was a little longer than stated but it wasn’t the seller’s fault. They were very supportive. I was worried the item would arrive bent or folded if it was taking so long in transit but it was really well packaged and in perfect condition.
