    Great and honest seller! Item exactly as described, securely packaged, GREAT value for the price, very fast shipping. (On the shipper's end, postal service sat on the package for 5 whole days, could've hired an Amish guy and it would have gotten here faster, but that is NOT the shipper's fault.) Couldn't be more pleased, and grateful, for their level of service. 10 of 10 would do business with them again! Thank you!!

    Excellent service!! Arrived before expected and in perfect condition, as described. Securely packaged, the best price on all WWW and a most valuable item to add in my collection. Warm and kind seller, always alert for anything I might need. And, I might say, a very nice detail on the Thank You note. Hope to do business with you again in the future to contribute to your welfare. Thanks for everything, my kind friend. Be well. :)

    Items were exactly as pictured and exactly as described in the listing. Quickly shipped and took great care in the packaging . Seller made a mistake and lowered the price too much so when I purchased and got an amazing deal, the seller honored the transaction and stayed true to their word. I highly recommend this eBay shop. A++++++ honest seller. I look forward to buying more from them in the future.
