    Fantastic transaction! The seller was SUPER fast with shipping (I was actually shocked how fast it got here), the item was packed well, and just as advertised—it was in great shape. I would rate the seller a “10”, and would definitely work with them again in the future……Well done! This little guy will be a great addition to my existing flock of around 120 penguins that look just like him…….it’s quite the Christmas display……

    Item as described. Great price. Great experience with this seller. I bought a whetstone grinder that had some issues with the original belts. The seller credited me for the cost to replace the belts right away. The machine is now working like new. Fast shipping, well packaged. I'm very happy.
