    Lightening fast shipping— seller shipped in one day. I needed the camera for a trip to Spain/Switzerland and seller made sure I was taken care of and that I got it on time. Seller said item had flaws but I received in mint condition. Communicated quickly and was kind to help me despite their busy schedule. Very well packaged.Thank you
