Thanks so much for the great job you did in protecting the book I bought from you! Poor shipping practices among the high volume sellers on abebooks.com is a major issue for me as a book lover, so I've been trying to avoid dealing with the ones I can't trust. It's great to see a seller treat books with respect!

THANK YOU for the recent order you sent me! It arrived in perfect condition due to your excellent packing. The books are wonderful! Especially valued are the old Roman Catholic books with dust wrappers! Thanks so much.
