The product shipped fairly fast. It also arrived in a timely manner. The packaging was done expertly and the seller even added extra layering inside the package to prevent rain/bad weather from destroying the book. There are no tears and the binding is still very strong/intact. Also, the pages do not have any visible signs of aging or damage. The product is as described by the seller. The value of this book was also cheaper and more affordable with this seller than it was at other shops.

This was a very responsive seller from the time an offer was made to me, to providing tracking information, and getting my item shipped. The turnaround time was exceptionally quick and my item arrived far sooner than I anticipated. This book was written and signed by one of my cousins in 1891 and I am so happy to have this piece of family history back in the family. It arrived safely packaged and nicely wrapped. The offer made was generous and greatly appreciated.

A++++++ Seller!! Seller worked with me to delay shipping for when we would be in town, and item arrived beautifully and in pristine condition. The packaging kept it safe from folds or tampering. The etchings were as described, and if fact would say even better. Would buy again!
