- l***p (98)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufBook was sold at a fair price and was in excellent condition when received; book was as described in listing. I expected slow shipping, as I believe the listing said it would be slow; but I was pleasantly surprised at how quickly the book arrived. I had a question about the book and seller was quick to respond, very helpful and very polite. Would definitely buy from this seller again.

- o***g (17)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufWas a bit worried ordering something from Alaska since I never have, but this seller proved my fear was probably a bit irrational. It arrived in great condition, and far faster than I thought. Also, I appreciate the low price. Thank you.
