- r***a (87)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseThe item was shipped fast, and arrived in decent condition luckily. Would be a five star review if this thing has been packaged with any care at all. Nearly 100 dollar item just thrown in a bag with absolutely no protection. It arrived OK, but clearly took some dings in transit that were totally unnecessary. Had I known I would have sent a private message offering to pay for better packing.
