    The book the seller sent is one that's special to me, hard to find, and which I had unfortunately lost. Not only was the price more than fair, but the seller was prompt to respond to inquiries, shipped the item quickly, packaged it safely, and its condition -- listed as acceptable -- was actually "Good!" I would definitely buy from them again, and appreciate that they also do charitable/humanitarian work, as that is a part of my work and purpose.
