Book was new as promised and in new condition. A good value for the price. It arrived in perfect condition without stickers or any bumps to corners. Book shipped quickly and came in padded envelope wrapped in paper (may I suggest you consider wrapping books in plastic to avoid rain damage?) and had no damage.

Excellent seller. My book arrived in pristine condition. It was well packaged, shipping to Germany took 2 weeks. The shipping cost in general could be cheaper, but it is what it is. The book it beautiful and will look amazing on my bookshelf. I can highly recommend this seller, would buy from again. Thank you!

Book was shipped insanely fast! It was also packaged nicely too, especially in brown wrapping paper to ensure it doesn't arrive with the dings of shipping. It also came exactly as it was shown in the pictures. As a sucker for Penguin Classics books, this was a good find for a good price. Good seller!
