This package was literally packed in five different boxes packed with plenty of padding and came all the way from Hawaii to the states in perfect condition as exactly as described. I would highly recommend this seller as they went above and beyond the whole way even wishing me Mahalo in a very sweet note. Wonderful experience from beginning to end.

This book was wrapped so carefully and in so many layers that it took 5 minutes to open it! It is in beautiful condition, exactly as described and was worth every penny. Considering it shipped from the other side of the country it got here in a reasonable amount of time. Couldn’t be happier!
