detailedReviews 20: content: Good price for the book. Shipping was slow. Messaged the seller a week after I ordered it to see when they were going to ship it. They responded immediately and said it would be shipped out soon. Got it about a week later. Book did arrive in the date range that they provided though 
Minimal packaging. Book is Shrink wrapped and only wrapped in thin plastic. No bubble wrap. Book is in good shape though.

detailedReviews 21: content: The book I bought was reasonably priced and when it arrived it was in the 'Like New' condition specified in the listing. However, when I saw that the seller had not shipped the book after more than 15 days had passed since my order I felt I must write to say that I had actually placed an order with the seller and inquire when it planned to send the book. The brusque reply was that a tracking number was available, but no number HAD been created until I pointed out that I had placed the order.

detailedReviews 22: content: Item as described. Poly mailer, no padding. Description clearly states delivery window of several weeks. Yet I chose this seller because item is new. Purchased/paid April 16, shipped April 28, arrived Maryland to SC May 5.This after contacting seller on day 10 to ask why it had not shipped yet. Slow return communication requesting invoice number/transaction date. Just be aware. IMHO eBay has sellers with faster, more efficient delivery service.

detailedReviews 24: content: Great book, great price, and great condition. The Seller was a great communicator when I asked twice about the order. I appreciate a volume seller since I ordered two on the same day, back to back, but it seems like a complicated web of different shipping carriers before reaching USPS. I’m thankful it only took 1 day from when USPS finally got the item!! Purchased 7/12, shipped 7/22, USPS received 7/30, and I received 7/31.

detailedReviews 25: content: This is a collectors item, It is a boxed set that we as Fans of the series would like to receive in a pristine condition.. considering these are not just some ordinary editions of the book, right after ordering, I messaged the seller to please secure the packaging and make sure that the set has no dents.
Lo and behold, when it came, it was covered by a thin carton box, and a thin layer of bubble wrap.
You would expect the box of the books would also be preserved since its is also what you buy it for,
But it came dented in ALL CORNERS. Not just some minor or subtle dents, but as you can see in the picture, clearly, it wasnt handled with care maybe from the storage until shipment?
The cover of the books inside were kinda blemished too, pictures for reference.
Considering this is a large chain, it should be expected that they are able to package and store their product well. This isnt as fragile as glass but the nature of the product itself, being a collectors Item, a Fragile sticker should have been placed.
Before buying this, I read reviews, some saying that theirs came dented too, I just thought that the seller would take those comments seriously and apply corrections where needed, but well, clearly, no.
I looked forward to receiving this, only to be really disappointed in the Packaging and Handling of the item.
Asking for a return or refund is not quite the answer to this issue because what is the guarantee that it will arrive better? And the time and hassle to return and reorder and wait again is just a nuisance, when it shouldve been packed securely and properly handled and labeled from the beginning.

detailedReviews 26: content: Was really looking forward kc I got this with a huge discount pero ang tindi ng damage sa box. Buti na lang hindi halata damage sa likod ng Sorcerer’s stone. Pristine parin pages at front cover. The rest of the books are fine too. Was conflicted if I should refund it pero mawawala kc ung discount eh if I tried again.
Based on the box placement + barely any dents sa shipping box —this was already damaged before shopee shipment. For future buyers make sure to ask for pictures before delivery.

detailedReviews 27: content: The books do not look like they're brand new. I'm a bit disappointed. The head cap is worn out - pati yung baba. Parang gamit na. I wouldn't say it's a waste of hard earned money cause it's the inner part of the book that matters but still NBS could have done better.
