[ And I decry how eBay has taken to erase my descriptive Feedbacks each time, forcing me to save these words in Notes, and retrieve them for editing, for each successive detailed feedback!]
Ultimately, I had a very good experience with the seller; because their customer service was outstanding. A mistake was made, and when I contacted her, she immediately got back to me, figured it out, and went out of her way to make sure that I received the correct item by the time I needed it, along with other excellent customer service. Her response is what excellent customer service looks like And we rarely see these days. I recommend the seller and would buy from them again.
A most interesting volume- a collection of some Wolfe’s lesser known short works. The book was well described in the listing, ( good photos and plenty of general information). The packaging is always done with care, the turnaround time from receipt of order to delivery is quick, and the items are of high quality. The seller is open to offers from buyers, will offer discounts at times and has a wide variety of interesting items for sale. Very happy buyer!
