  1. The packaging was appropriate and the book arrived safely. The vendor description did not enable me to know what the book was: I expected Skeat's C-text (for no good reason from any description details) and received Skeat's B-text, which was in fact what I wanted more. Why an English text should be described to me in French is a further puzzle. Why the vendor should, in response to a delivery enquiry, cite Donald Trump, is also a puzzle: Trump is not our Prime Minister.

  2. unfortunately when i opened the parcel this wasn’t the book i had expected , however i contacted the seller and even though it wasn’t anybody’s fault, the seller offered a refund without no quibble, i am waiting the return label, but in my mind any company that is willing to adress these minor issues gets a high mark from me therefore I recommend this seller to all.
