    I ordered this item for parts to renovate a similar hair cutter that had worn out over time. Although shipping was a bit late, nothing unusual; the seller was very responsive to my messages about delayed shipping. The item was very well packed, on inspection after it arrived. It was exactly as the seller described and in good shape for the age of the item. I thought it was a very good value based on the negotiated price. I am pleased with the item and the seller. Thank you.

    Item was in unbelievable condition! Looked brand new, in original box too. Item was packaged so well that it took me several minutes to open it. I appreciate the care, supplies and effort put in to ensure that the Bible was not damaged or bent during shipping. Highly recommended seller! Smooth transaction, quick responses and excellent customer service.
