Item arrived in perfect condition and days earlier than projected. Initially I thought shipping was a little high but when I saw the pains taken to package item for safe arrival I was glad to have paid it. The price was a bargain for a vintage item and I am very, very happy to own this. This is an excellent seller, very trustworthy and I would definitely use again. Thank you for the offering.
This seller is extremely conscientious having given the utmost attention to every detail of this transaction. The item was reasonably priced, was shipped very quickly, and arrived in perfect condition. It was only a very small sale of a retro plastic train cake topper, and I swear it was packaged more protectively than some people package glassware. I was impressed!!!
I received this order in a timely manner. It was just as the vendor described. I’m glad I placed this order. This little dish is very cute. I added it to my milk glass collection and I use it as a riser for one of my vases. The dish was wrapped very well. I recommend this seller.
