      Overall, this purchase was good. The book arrived on time and quickly, which I was pleased about. The book came in as described, a little better too. The only thing i was uncertain with was the packaging. It arrived with nothing but the standard packaging (the black plastic thing not sure what it’s called 😅). I wish it just had a little bit more extra packaging to ensure its condition. Other than that, amazing service and delivery, great value, quality, and appearance, saved alot of money
