This is our second typewriter purchased from Nis and it is another gem! He takes great pride in restoring these machines and packages them carefully with care. When we hit a minor hiccup after the typewriter arrived - he immediately helped us out and responded to my e-mail questions. Fantastic Seller!

The typewriter is in great condition and typed nicely right out of the box. It was packed well and arrived without any problems. He left an open line of communication for any questions. It cost a little more than a random untested typewriter, and it was money well spent. Thank you!!

I appreciate this note from a buyer who completely gets what I'm trying to do here. If you're one of the lucky few, there is a typewriter service person within an hour's drive of where you live. If not, you're one of the many -- and the typewriters I sell arrive pre-serviced. To paraphrase Mark Twain, the difference between an attic-find typewriter and a properly serviced typewriter is the difference between lightning and the lightning bug.

What a great seller! Knowledgeable, super helpful before the purchase. Helped me choose the right typewriter. The item arrived quickly, perfectly packaged. It’s exactly as described, and really a cool piece. So great to work with sellers that truly love the items they sell. 100% recommended.
