Forget about Paris' Shakespeare Company, Venice Acqua Alta or Buenos Aires' L'ateneo: Argosy Bookstore really has all the content, class and charm, not to mention really book connoisseurs on the staff. The best bookstore I've ever been.
It has been a very l-o-n-g time in ordering another book from you but nonetheless very happy to have done so. My book arrived today in perfect condition and I do thank you for the prompt shipping along with the aforementioned condition. I still miss not having a decent bookshop in my neck of the woods but I am grateful to still have the ability to use my computer and search engine to find such treasures such as sellers like you and find items to purchase for my various interests!
