Second book purchased with this bookseller and the same excellent service The book in slipcase was in excellent condition, as described, and arrived that way due to brilliant packaging. Impeccable service highly recommended.

Good afternoon My order of Lancaster at War – 2 was received yesterday, Friday October 7, and I was very impressed with your packaging. The book was place inside a plastic bag, which was placed inside a cardboard slipcase, which was place inside the cardboard shipping wrapper. This has to be the most thoughtful packaging of any book purchased in memory, and praise and complements are in order. I will be looking at your sight as the #1 resource for any future books on the Lancaster Bomber going forward. Best wishes on your continued success.

I buy a lot of secondhand books on eBay and the internet, but have dropped the practice of writing reviews. This purchase was exceptional. The item was in excellent condition, as described, it was despatched and delivered promptly and the packaging was outstanding. I’ve been dismayed many, many times by getting books wrapped in nothing but a thin plastic cover. Without exception the book inside will have bumps. Not so in this case. The book was in excellent condition. Thank you.

Just a quick note to say THANK YOU SO MUCH as usual - the 3 Letterpress Shakepeare volumes arrived in immaculate condition. I don’t think I’ve ever experienced such careful packing - really appreciate that you put foam INSIDE the clamshells as well to prevent corner rubbing during transit.Thank you for taking such good care of the books - and of me!

A follow up note to report that Luttrell and Tractatus arrived safely this morning, BEAUTIFULLY packed. I can’t thank you enough for taking my packaging feedback to heart and ensuring that, with the multiple layers of bubble wrap and double boxes, these two gorgeous facsimiles arrived in exactly the condition expected, in spite of their delayed transit. One of the best packing jobs I’ve seen. Much, much appreciated. And gosh, what beautiful tomes!

This is just to let you know my books arrived safe and sound yesterday. The packaging was commendable; Houdini would not have escaped. I'm delighted with my books and I will return.

Just letting you know that my order has arrived safely. Both books are in lovely condition and thank you for your friendly & prompt customer service. I placed my order through your website for the first time & the process was very easy to navigate. Previously, I had ordered books from you through AbeBooks but decided to use your website instead this time & will continue to do so in the future. Thanks again & I look forward to reading my 'new' books.
