    One of the best glass orders I've ever received. The seller took the time to wrap individual pieces so that everything was protected. Exactly as described in the description. Shipping was on time and phenomenal.

    Very happy with the purchase, not happy with the shipping! The box was beat up and ripped open could see the contents inside,Then Fedex left the box on my porch in a downpour so now the box is soaked and mush. Good thing the content is waterproof.
