Item arrived on time and as described. The antiquarian books I purchased were very well packaged. Throughout there was timely and helpful communication. For me, was a first-time experience with this seller and was just as one would hope for, and expect, from a seller. The seller deserves the highest positive feedback. I strongly recommend seller for the great array of antiquarian items, and for the competence and reliability of the seller in delivering on their end of the transaction process.

The set of books that I purchased were better than described and expertly packaged. The shipping was faster than expected, as upgraded shipping was provided at no extra cost. This seller was slow at responding to some of my messages and offers, but really came through in the end and made this a great experience. I would recommend Ari Rare Books to the discerning collector!

Amazing service; exactly as described - a beautiful book. Wrapped so securely an aircraft black box would have been in greater jeopardy from damage in transit. And so quick! I am blown away. Many many thanks.
