As described, brand new with tags; a perfect fit! Good shipping time. The seller added a nice touch: when I opened the outer ship package, I found that she had gift-wrapped the item, with a thank-you card. A very nice surprise, to find a seller who cares enough about her business and her buyers to add that extra touch, thank you, Debbie. Would buy from again, with pleasure. Very positive transaction!

Item was damaged in shipping, despite seller packing it really well and even putting a red "Fragile" sticker on the box. Requested a return and seller gave me a full refund. Unfortunate situation but the seller was a true professional with how they handled this. Thank you!

Seller did a great job double box packing this piece. It arrived late through no fault of the seller. The USPS had it bouncing all over the country. Luckily because of the great packaging job it arrived safe and sound. Would definitely purchase from this seller again.
