    These skates were in incredible condition! The shipping was quite fast too (about 3-4 days). The skates were better than what the seller had even described and these were a great deal as far as condition and pricing!! The package was nicely boxed, and the skates were bubble wrapped nicely as well which I am sure protected the nice condition of the skates during shipping as well. Overall, I am very pleased with the value of what I got and with this seller! 10/10 would buy from this seller again!

    Merchandise was as described in brand new condition, while packed and shipped for delivery in protective packaging. The cost was reasonable. The appearance of the inside pages is new without highlighting or writing. Seller is deserving of 5 star rating and a recommendation for others to do business.
