  2. The very best seller I have encountered on eBay! I plan to do business with Westchester Books again, if they will accept my business. Sadly, I had to return the books I purchased from them, through no fault of theirs. They were patient, responsive, and understanding. If you could choose only one book seller on eBay, Westchester Books is the one you should choose. 5 STARS ALL THE WAY!! Great seller! Fast shipping. Excellent packaging. Great value. I plan to buy again from this seller.
