Pros

The history of middle earth is a three-volume hardcover set spanning over 5,000 pages. Includes four books covering the history of the lord of the rings, including how the one ring gained its power and the first appearance of a black rider. Indispensa... Read More

The books are very high quality with smyth sewn binding. They fit snugly as they should without being too tight.

Highly recommend this seller. I'm happy to say that they may have improved based on feedback.

The paper is thinner than standard, but that is necessary for books this size. The printing is easy to read and i am impressed at the completeness of the contents. The paper seems to be of good quality and is durable enough to be easily read without d... Read More

The box is cardboard, but nice enough. The case itself is stout and isn't coming apart. Yes it is a bit flimsy, but that was expected.

Quality

I have noticed no issues with the quality.

Shipping

The package was delivered to my home quickly and in perfect condition.

It took about two weeks for my order to arrive.

The books are shipped from the uk and there is no way to monitor their travel.

Packaging/appearance

My hard-cover books arrived in pristine condition in a sturdy box inside shrink-wrap.

The packing was superb and the books arrived earlier than expected and completely undamaged, unlike what some others have experienced.

I had a problem with my first order: the box the collection nests in was beaten up on the edges and the pages of the first volu... Read More

I didn't open it until just recently and discovered that the box holding the books got cracked on the top and bottom during shipping.

Competitiveness

Really you cannot get a better deal and they are gorgeous and hardbound.
