    Item was in great condition- tightly packaged- and just like it looks in the picture. Sometimes I worry about covers matching when I order books online, but I had nothing to worry about! The price for such an old book was also incredibly and why I'm keeping my eye on this store for future purchases. I also want to say this seller was very empathetic and communicative when the package arrived in time, but the post office wouldn't ship it correctly. The issue wasn't on them, but they still cared!

    5 STARS all the way, smooth BIN transaction, auto & personal emails, prompt shipping (delayed by weather/USPS), (overly) great packaging, great price/good deal, quality product = Happy Customer. Astonished to find exact replacement for my beloved faucet. Outstanding eBayer to keep an eye on!
