Items purchased were vintage & in excellent condition. I have never seen delicate items such as these packed more carefully. The seller went to great lengths to ensure they arrived unbroken. The seller was very easy to work with and was a great communicator. I would buy from Scott again, without any hesitation. I wish all eBay transactions went this smoothly.

These folks went out of their way to make sure I got this piece that completes a family set after one was broken in a storm. Excellent communication, excellent packaging, exactly as described. Pricing was spot on.
