    This seller was EXCELLENT! They made me an offer, but I was waiting on payday, and the offer expired before I could buy it, so they kindly reopened the offers section so I could still get the offer price. Item is in perfect shape- exactly as depicted in the pictures- and was safely packaged. I couldn’t be happier.

    EXTRA SPECIAL 5 STARS! When the offer would not allow a shipping discount the seller reworked the offer to reflect a more realistic figure and the deal was struck right there. AN OUTSTANDING display of sales, service, communication, packing and fast shipping. WOW This seller is true blue down to earth real. Looking out for the customer and doing the right thing was a new and refreshing event. 5 STARS is not enough for this transaction. The items arrived super well packed and all intact early !!!
