My book arrived in record time (it shocked me when it arrived so soon after ordering) and was beautifully packaged. If it didn't go via DHL it would never have made it through the Australia Post system unscathed!!! Thank you!
I wanted to let you know that the Lehár autograph quotation arrived safe and sound having made its transatlantic journey without any problems. It’s a beautiful thing, and I can’t wait to get it up on the wall. I’m absolutely delighted with it – thank you!
