Received antique book I had ordered today and couldn't be more pleased! It arrived fast, and very well-packaged for shipping. The book came just as pictured on seller's page. Considering its age, it's in great shape! I had been searching for an actual copy of this book for some time, and was elated when I found this one. I'd like to thank the seller for going the extra mile with making sure the book arrived safe and sound. A+ sales and service. Thank you and well done, seller!

Best packaging I’ve received from an EBay seller. The Bible itself exceeded my expectations, it looks almost new! They added a handmade bookmark as a cute gift and they packaged it all in a sturdy box, filled it with good quality foam (made no mess, felt almost like cotton) and wrapped the Bible in a plastic bag. It all looked like it had been carefully handled. I was pleasantly surprised and will buy from this seller again! Thank you!!
