    From when I ordered it to when it arrived was about 8 days. 4 new 12" clamps for $84.83 total or $21.21 each. Reasonable price considering shipping. Before I bought it I asked though if it was the clamp with the yellow pads or the one with the black pads, because the product image showed 2 different clamps. The seller said it was the yellow model. I received the black model. (note: other differences aside from color). The return was no hassle and every communication was positive with the seller.

    My experience with this seller was stellar. There was a minor issue with the product and it was handled quickly and the response was amazing. This seller puts the smile back into customer service. Something you dont see very often is this weary world.

    Seller did contact me and let me know the item I was interested in was not exactly to the version they had shown and returned my money. I was grateful for the honesty and professionalism of the seller being aware of this particular issue. Definitely would do business again with them.

    Interesting

    This is an interesting read about how TV effects out minds. However, I feel it is a little outdated due to the fact that the internet is the new craze. But the content is interesting and still applies in many aspects.

    A Prophet With Honor

    Neil Postman is a prophet who accurately predicted Twitter the Trump presidency. His carefully worked out and thoroughly proven by the passage of time is that television by its nature is a medium hostile to serious, intelligent discourse. Billy Graham can no more offer salvation on TV than Al Roker can track a hurricane. My copy of this classic has a devoted intro by Postman's son. It should be required reading at all TV schools.

    Awesome reading! Sticks a spoon in your brain and stirs it awake.

    Everyone should read it. Even though written before the rise of the Internet, the points made ring true to this day.
