    Hello, I’m sorry but it turns out that my roommate got the package instead of me when he picked it up. I would be more than happy to pay back the refund you gave me because I contacted you thinking it was not delivered. Thank you so much for your excellent service And I would be glad to pay you back the refund. Please contact me about that if you would like it paid back. Thank you, and have a good day!

    I was very glad to find the copy of Call Me John by Richard Cardinal Cushing. I read the book many years ago, but it was lost somewhere in the past. I am looking forward to re-reading it again. It was just as described, the shipping was fast and it was well wrapped. A great value considering it is so hard to find. The seller gets a 5-star rating, and I would not hesitate to purchase from again.

    One of the best booksellers on ebay, hands down! Love purchasing from this shop. Books always arrive super-fast (I ordered on a Saturday and they were here within only a few days!) and packed with the utmost care. Books are in superb condition. Listings are always very detailed and accurate to a T. Thank you SO much for these three new additions to my bookshelf!
