    I got the Blu ray of STRANDED, a sci Fi movie starring Christian slater and I got it at a really great price from estocks_usa. I'm a bit surprised on how fast they got it to me because of the 4th of July weekend window I'd ordered it in, but it got to me earlier than listed and well wrapped up. It got to me in brand new looking shape. Good seller, fast shipping and they sent me what they advertised.

    I ordered the Jefferson Airplane cd 2400 Fulton Street from estocks-USA. It’s a double cd set. It arrived very quickly and was packaged superbly. However upon opening the package I found that only one of the two cds had been shipped. I reached out to the seller to make them aware of the problem. They quickly responded and took responsibility for the mistake. Moreover they immediately refunded my money no other questions asked. These days it’s rare to find a seller that puts the customer first!!!

    Love this classic

    I never read this book as a child but heard of the story, so I night this for my children. I love the nostalgic artwork as it reminds me of books I would read at my grandparents house. The book is older than I am, but was in excellent condition, only showing slight wear on the cover!

  • When all the big, important engines won't pull the toy train, the little engine does the job.

    Wonderful story for kids that teaches them that they can do whatever they put their minds to, as long as they try hard.
