- u***u (3530)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Mes pasadoCompra verificadaGreat seller. I only received shipping label and letter from USPS that package was destroyed in system and item lost. Seller wasn’t obligated to process refund but did so after I emailed them pictures of what I received. Can truly recommend this seller to everyone. Superb customer service!
- l***3 (7)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Mes pasadoCompra verificadaThis item was described as "good" but it was shrink wrapped and in pristine condition. It was far better than expected. I was hesitant to order from this seller because there were no photos of the item, but I'm so glad I did. The shipping time and packaging were top-notch, too. Very, very pleased! I would order from this seller again in a heartbeat. Thank you!
