Quality was first rate. The book seemed brand new; appearance was perfect and uncreased. It was carefully bubble wrapped and packed inside a cardboard wrapper for media, as I mentioned it was a Xmas gift and was concerned - it might get damaged in shipment, but NO, it got the very BEST care and packing, despite being a paperback. I feel I got great value for my money, and the best consideration possible from the seller. I HIGHLY recommend the seller! A++++
