    I got what i expected, the warning label for being heavy was amusing, the delivery guy joked about it lol. was all well packed. This IS a good seller i can recommend, but ordering was more of a hassle then necessary, the automatic decline for "make an offer" was irritating, all 5 of my offers declined, please don't give the "make an offer" option if you don't want to go down farther than $5 or less off asking price, its a waste of time and effort, these usually turn me away from buying.
