    As Mary Poppins would say--SUPERCALIFRAGILISTICEXPIALIDOCIOUS--that's the way this eBayer can describe this seller!!!!! This was the last book we needed to complete our collection of GOOD OLD DAYS by Ken Tate. The book arrived in a padded envelope AND also one whole sheet of wrapping paper--WOW--can't ask for anything better than that. The book was just as described--maybe better--and we are still smiling and THANKING this GREAT SELLER!!!!! MERRY CHRISTMAS to you mrb7777--you are the BEST!!!!!

    Shipping was extremely fast. Packaging was fantastic! The item was exactly as described!! The value was the best part!!! Highly recommend this seller!!! Picture looks cutoff, but it went to a friend, who put it on a shelf in her living room and I think it’s the perfect addition. How about you?
