    Shipping was fast and right on time!! I just got it in the mail a few seconds ago! The packaging was secure and protected and the CD was exactly as shown and as described on the seller's page and the CD: PANTyRAiD-THE SAUCE (Very Rare) was priced according to the value of its rarity. I will most certainly be a returning customer again to this seller! Thank you for a worth-while experience!!!!

    Item arrived VERY TIMELY because the seller used the US Postal Service to ship (and not some POS third-rate 'shipping partner' to needlessly delay shipping) and it was well packaged and arrived in good condition and is exactly as described. Thank you very much. ALL GOOD!!!
