- l***i (972)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseFast shipping safe packaging. As described and at a great price. Great communication with fast and friendly responses. A real 5 star seller!
- s***5 (768)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseAccurate picture and description, size and condition were exactly what I hoped they would be. Cardboard packaging could have been better (we get a lot of rain this time of year) but item was at least protected by a plastic sleeve and so arrived undamaged. Tracking was pretty accurate so I knew when to come outside to retrieve it to save from the rain. Wonderful piece of memorabilia from Esalen's past. Was delighted to come across this listing.
