I am very pleased that you took the time to consult me on the price before just adding the additional shipping cost onto my credit card. Ordering things on-line, one runs into all kinds of less-than-considerate business practices... Thanks again for taking the time to contact me. I'm looking forward to the book.
The Wanley arrived SO quickly, and I really love it! It is extremely hard to put down, even for a minute. Thank you very much for the book, the phone conversation, and the speedy arrival.
