    Item as advertised, well packed with fast shipping at a reasonable rate, seller listed the item at an affordable price and even gave me a special offer on it unlike other sellers that have the item and are ask just a ridiculous price for it because it’s a “ discontinued item”, they are trying to do highway robbery. This seller is honest and fair. Very happy with the purchase and with the seller.

    Great seller, fast shipping and packed very well in an extra large box. My new peanut warmer arrived earlier then expected, everything about the peanut patch warmer was described in the listing honestly. To top off this amazing transaction the seller also accepted an offer I sent them them and I couldn't have gotten a better value threw any other seller. I will continue to do business with this reliable seller here in the near future.
