- r***2 (17)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseYeti Lowlands Blanket Nordic Purple arrived in perfect condition. Blanket appears to be brand new with tag/lable still attached as advertised. This is a heavy duty outdoor blanket with the high quality you'd expect from Yeti. Outer shipping box was ripped open in shipment, but product unaffected. After viewing ad, Seller sent me a discount offer which I accepted. Very happy with purchase! Funny side note - was sent in old popcorn maker box. My wife thought I had bought another popcorn maker 🤣😂Yeti Lowlands Blanket. Nordic Purple. never used with tags still attached (#176838841882)

- 1***n (118)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThe color of the flower wasn't quite as I expected being more orange than crimson but it is fine. Fast shipping and the packaging was a sight to behold. I've never received anything that was quite so securely packed. It would have had to have been run over by a steam roller to have broken. Good transaction.
