    Shipping was timely, packaging well done, and smartly described in the Ebay posting. The jpeg had real clarity, not always the case in other instances. The bar itself is beautiful, boasting a wonderfully, evenly distributed, brown toning, the best as I’ve ever seen. Very, very pleased with this purchase! And at a good value! I’ll have keep an eye out for this seller’s future offerings.
