Very well packaged. Better than some other sellers that just ship books in a Manila padded envelope. This seller had wrapped it in bubble wrap then placed in a box full of packed paper. Because of this extra careful attention the 139 year old book made it safe to its new forever home. The book arrived on time. As described. Great value for a book this old. The stain on front cover is exactly as described. I would prefer it to not have the stain but it definitely adds character.

I was very glad to find the copy of Call Me John by Richard Cardinal Cushing. I read the book many years ago, but it was lost somewhere in the past. I am looking forward to re-reading it again. It was just as described, the shipping was fast and it was well wrapped. A great value considering it is so hard to find. The seller gets a 5-star rating, and I would not hesitate to purchase from again.

One of the best booksellers on ebay, hands down! Love purchasing from this shop. Books always arrive super-fast (I ordered on a Saturday and they were here within only a few days!) and packed with the utmost care. Books are in superb condition. Listings are always very detailed and accurate to a T. Thank you SO much for these three new additions to my bookshelf!
