Surprisingly quick delivery to Sweden
Quite satisfied. A mail or message notifying me when the books were dispatched would have been nice, but in this case the books arrived so relatively quickly that it didn’t matter so much.

Amazing service
I've been buying from PBA Galleries for many years while living in 3 different countries and what impresses me most is the prompt and professional service. No matter what my question, concern or request is, it has always been dealt with quickly and sensibly. It has been a great pleasure and I'll keep returning.

bad service, frowsy descriptions
Lot was not carefully viewed, manuscripts were described as "appears handwritten" but was easily identified as normal copies. Further hints about the fact that the documents were copies were not investigated. In total it seems the lot was viewed 2 minutes and then described. But the starting price was set up to an amount that suggested that autograph manuscripts were included. Smells like scam. My immediate payment was overlooked, I had to advise PBA Galleries that I already paid. And finally they charged me at first 200 US $for a small parcel to Germany! When I asked about that they halved the shipping costs to a still high price. In total I bought a pile of cheap copies for much money and enormous shipping costs and had to do all the work by myself. So beware of this bad auction house!

Everything went well, the item was accurately described and came well packed. Shipping wasn't too bad. Can't find anything wrong with this auction, which is rare. I've dealt with hundreds of auction houses and few do I feel this comfortable with. Scary.
