- p***k (1176)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufThe item - book on tunisian crochet is fantastic. It has a perfect appearance. Is as described. Delivered finally today even tho eBay app said delivered yesterday. Great communication in a timely manner from seller after not being able to find package. Just relief to have it delivered today.

- r***e (603)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufFantastic Seller! Great communication, sent actual photos of the Bible AND - LOWERED the PRICE for me! This is a very thick book of over 2000 pages (yes, 2K+) and was surprised it was just in a slightly padded envelope. The envelope had obvious damage including a tear along the Bible edge, may have let some moisture in - even dirt and wood chips embedded on one end of the envelope. Miraculously, the book looked very good once out. Very near MINT for a 31 year old book! Great! THANKS THANKS TY!!

The photo was accurate and the price was good. I was pleasantly surprised to find a poster of the cover art for the book included and folded in the back of it. The seller was very good and I'd be happy to purchase from them again in the future.The Newford Stories: Dreams Underfoot / The Ivory and The Horn / Moonlight a... (Nr. 226589034987)
