Good Company, will use again
I got my books quickly and 4 of the 5 was in the very good condition. One ranked good and it was just slightly good. A couple ranked very good and could have passed as new. This is about my 6 or 7 order from this company. Any time I have had a problem, they took care of it. I am getting ready to order a couple more books/
