    The seller shipped the item in a timely manner, however there was an error in the listing about the gauge of wire. Even with that the seller went out of their way to give a full refund despite not accepting returns and my already having opened the package before checking, without hesitation. You can't ask any more than that from a seller. Very good customer service. I appreciate the quick response and action!

    Package arrived as advertised with perfect packaging. The item was in excellent condition, true LEGO quality, looked exactly as described (even better in person), and feels like a great value for the price. I’m really pleased with both the quality and appearance of the item, as well as the contents inside. The seller double-wrapped everything. I would definitely buy from this seller again.

    This seller was great!!! Accepted my lower offer and shipped it quickly, with perfect packaging and a great condition! It was exactly how it looked and was perfect for what they priced it at! I am glad that there was not even a rip in the plastic wrap, and that it was as new as described. I would recommend this seller due to their good practices and such!
