- 2***l (44)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Mes pasadoCompra verificadaHBH Mercantile provided a smooth transaction. TH Sizzix die cutters (#662698) arrived as described; I do not think set is new though, because inner cellophane wrapping that comes with dies is missing, which means it is likely used. No dies are missing and made a complete set, so all is well. Shipment was a quick 3 days (in bubble wrap), because we are in the same state. Still, the dies are retired and I was OK to pay the pretty penny for them. I would purchase from this seller again! Cheers.
- a***d (56)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaI have been really into making Christmas ornaments this year and saw this mold. The seller offered it at a great price and shipped it quickly. I am very happy with the quality of the mold and would purchase from seller again. I am using the mold to pour resin, but it can be used for other mediums also. The mold is exactly as described and pictured on the seller's site. The seller wrapped in securely and boxed it so it arrived in great condition.
