    I cannot say enough positive things about this transaction and this seller. These books were reasonably priced; packaged exquisitely to protect them from damage in transit; shipped extremely quickly; and their condition is precisely as described in the listing. At all steps of the transaction, the seller was keen to communicate with me to ensure a smooth, pleasant, delightful experience. An OUTSTANDING seller who I cannot recommend enough.

    Communication with the seller was absolutely top notch. I am also extremely happy with the way the item was packaged. It is easy to damage a nearly 60 year old pulp magazine and this was nestled in 4 separate layers of protection, placed firmly in the package but not so firmly that it damaged the edges. I wish more sellers took this level of care. Also, the item description was spot on. I would do business with this seller again in a heartbeat.

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ One of the best eBay experiences I’ve had. Zack was super friendly and easy to chat with throughout, the book arrived in perfect condition, and he even tucked in a thoughtful little Philip K. Dick–related surprise that absolutely made my day. It felt more like trading with a fellow book lover than just a transaction. You can tell he really cares about what he’s selling and the people he’s selling to. Couldn’t recommend him enough—I’d gladly buy from him again anytime.
