I purchased a new, sealed CD at a reasonable price, and was sent a new plastic case along with my CD because there was a crack in it's case even though it was still in the original sealed plastic. Wow - and the two units were separately wrapped with bubble paper to assure no new cracks would be produced during shipping. This is a go-beyond-expectations seller! I will be starting my CD shopping here before considering the products of other sellers.Gaither Gospel Series "Down by the Tabernacle" (DVD) (#267118292465)
