    Supper seller. I received the original shipment (padded mailer - package only - no contents, end had been ripped off) possibly by USPS handling machine. I contacted seller via EBAY messaging with photos of the mailer. Seller immediately sent a replacement shipment packed in a sturdy pasteboard box which I received today - very well packed and at sellers expense. I would definitely do business again. He stands behind is product an sales. Thank you for the great service.

  • Fun and do-able

    I have found that this book is an excellent place to begin a journey into robot building. The instructions are simple and complete. All the needed information is supplied. You are not left having to guess about robot construction. It's all there.
