I needed an odd volume of Encyclopedia Brittannica from 1922 to complete my short set. Where else would I find it but on EBay, and Andy had it! Item was accurately described, reasonably priced and well photographed, so I knew exactly what I was getting. Shipping was prompt and packaging was secure. A very smooth transaction and Iām grateful to Andy for the listing. My set is now complete! Thank you!

Shipping went sideways from the post office doing a random inspection then repackaging very poorly. The seller was very nice and helpful. Even though the corners were bent by the postal inspection, I feel like it was as described for a good value. Will be doing business with this seller again.
