    Amazing deal! The description said like new but the box and cards inside were still wrapped in plastic so it had never been used or opened. There was one little corner on the box that was not perfect but I’ve received brand new decks like that before just from shipping. I will definitely purchase from this seller again.

  • All hail The Queen!

    I’m enjoying the book tremendously! There’s lots of great insight & info on The Queen that I didn’t know. She was quite fascinating, both as a legendary artist & as a person. It’s funny, when these great artists are alive you take it for granted that they will be here forever, then when they transition it leaves a huge void. There is no other like Aretha! All hail The Queen!
