Awesome seller! Great product description! There was plenty of pictures and information to make a solid decision on a bid. Fair reasonable prices, fast shipping, and packaged professionally. I just received my order and item is exactly as described but even better in real time. Pictures couldn't justify the great condition it's in and I'm very pleased with my purchase. I highly recommend seller to anyone and I would definitely shop again in the future. Thank you for an excellent experience! 5⭐✨⭐
Seller combined shipping on this and another order. I made an offer on a bundle and my offer was accepted. Great value on two pieces for restoration. I'm sure they're described accurately and packing will be adequate. Seller was so very easy to work with and because of the combined shipping I was refunded nearly $12 as a credit. eBay doesn't make it easy to combine shipping and they need to work on a way for this to be easier for sellers. Def will buy from seller again, vintages tools are coo
The shipping was very quick, came even a full 3 days before expected delivery, and the packaging was great, ensured everything came in the as the listing described. Unfortunately the camera didn't work as I had hoped but the seller was very prompt on communication and more than willing to refund me for the item. 15/10 Seller, I wouldn't hesitate to do business with this seller again.
