  1. Received the Nymph Fly Tying Techniques & Pattern Styles, by Jim Schollmeyer 1st Edition. The book is of high quality. I'm very happy with my purchase and will continue to order from this seller. This seller has the best communications that I have ever seen in a seller. The book is at a great value.

  2. Fast & easy transaction. Packaged extremely well with a KJV Bible from the same $1.00 sale. Both books arrived in excellent used condition. Better than described. Overall, the two books are an outstanding value and replace a travelling/hospital visitation set I lost many years ago. Communications with the seller were outstanding, she was a true pleasure to do business with and I will watch for future offerings from her. AAAAA+++++
