    Great five-star service and communication from the seller. Great five-star item from the seller. Minus 100 stars for USPS, who had to deliver this package a total of 9.2 miles. Instead, USPS had this package travel 4,300 miles, as it was misdirected all across the country.

    The vinyl was packed with extreme care (bubble wrap, then cardboard on either side, then a buffer of newspaper around it in a box that was about an inch deep) and arrived in great condition. Everything was as described in the listing and the price was very good. I would buy vinyl from this seller again!

    Fast shipping, very well packaged. Seller shipped quickly, but USPS took 17 days to deliver. Not sellers fault. Good seller
