This superb set of books arrived swiftly and were packed protectively and carefully, as they deserved. Wonderful condition and as described, but so much more impressive in hand. I thought they were a good price: not cheap, why should they be given the age and the complete set: not expensive for their condition and the beauty of production: I would say , "Just right". My enquiry received a speedy reply and my experience with this seller nothing but joy.

Excellent eBay seller! The books were exactly as described and in great condition, especially considering that they are 100 years old! Postage was fast and it was a pleasure to open the package of books as they had been protected from the weather with plastic, protected from damage with 'bubble' cardboard and then finally beautifully wrapped in soft tissue - an absolute delight! My sincere thanks.

I had wanted a copy of this book for quite a while and was happy to get it at a price I could afford. It was exactly as described and shown in the photos. It shipped very fast and arrived sooner than I would have expected. It was well protected with plenty of packaging yet still easy to open without damascening the book.
