    This Seller is the Very Best. From First Contact to Delivery no one can surpass how Fantastic they are. Expertly Packed item, Fast Delivery and arrived in Perfect Condition. The price charged was competitive but not greedy and the postage the cost you would expect. They answered any enquiries quickly and full of the right information. I am so very, very pleased with this purchase and the Brrrrrilliant Seller. Thank you so very, very much. Keep doing what you are doing. Fantastic!

    Communication Prior to Buying was Responsive and Quick. However, having been Reassured that My Order would be Delivered by 'Local Postal Service', it Arrived by Private Courier. The Delivery itself took 25 Days to Arrive. Although it was Delivered before the Estimated Delivery Date, Locally Based Orders Shouldn't have to Take So Long to be Delivered. The New Item Arrived in Excellent Condition as Described. A Satisfying Buy at a Great Value Price but CS Advice Should've been More Reliable.
