Excellent Condition and Excellent Service

I was very impressed with the condition of the book. It was clean with no marks inside. In fact, it looked almost brand new. This surprised me as I have purchased other used books before only to return them due to the deplorable condition. The order was delivered within a few days and, I received a follow-up e-mail from the sender requesting feedback if I was not satisfied with the item. This was pretty impressive, I thought. Therefore, I gave the overall experience five stars - everthing was perfect.
