High-quality books at good prices.

I ordered two books
I ordered two books. The cheaper book arrived, the other book—that I have anticipated receiving for several weeks—never arrived. I received a notice that the second book arrived, but I did not receive it. The missing book is a large copy of The Living Bible. So I gave you three stars—three for the book I received, and no stars for the one that never arrived. To be honest I am disappointed about both books, as the one received was poorly redacted from the original sources.

Good selection and variety
Good selection and variety. Prices are also good. Will most likely order from here again. Only issue was a dvd case was broken. The discs were in perfect shape.So Not a deal breaker. Beings it was used it was not a surprise it could have been broken during shipping.
