When the books were sent on their way, I received the most clever e-mail from them (the books) about how they were excited to have been chosen and how they were looking forward to meeting me, etc. It was very fun and funny.
When we did finally 'meet,' they were in very good shape, even though some of them were listed as simply 'good shape.' Some of them even seem 'new' or 'excellent' to me. They did take a while to get to me, but I'm sure that's because I live in Alaska. It was well worth the wait, and I highly recommend this site.
