    The seller was incredibly communicative and was willing to lump together multiple items I'd purchased to combine shipping, which was greatly appreciated. The item itself was in perfect condition, looks better than in the photo, and was packaged well to avoid any damage during shipping. It arrived quickly and without any issues! Excellent Seller, Goes the Extra Mile. Smooth Transaction, Shipped Very Quickly, As Advertised; Good Price; Well Packaged & Delivered Within a Few Days. A+

    Thank you so much for offering this art book. Your price was fabulous on it. I had no communication, but you are no doubt a kind person. You are also a professional person, and your attention to detail really helped me in making my purchase decision. I'm adding you to my favorite seller list, and I always do shop with this list first. And also, I'd like to thank you for the lovely packaging, and the extremely fast shipping. The book was exactly as you described it. Happy New Year, if I can say.

  • Neat Book!!

    I purchased this to give to my husband to read to our son. My husband is a HUGE LOTR fan, and our son was just born a few months ago. My husband is just SO excited to be able to show his little guy the movies and books, etc.! When I found this book, I thought it would be a perfect gift for them, as it is aimed towards children. I gave it to my husband as a gift and he had the biggest smile on his face! It was the coolest gift I could have given him and our son! I am very happy! I can't wait until our son is a bit older so his daddy can read this to him!
