Upon ordering, I immediately received tracking within 10 mins. However, after 2 days, the tracking # still did not work. Upon several instances of contacting seller, no communication whatsoever was received. . My order was cancelled and refunded without any communication at all. This is a very poor way of doing business. Will not do business with this particular seller again.

Seller did not communicate back at all and waited a week before they finally took it to the post office. The ashtray needed a good cleaning as it had some sticky residue on it as well as tobacco stains. The packing job was sub par with only padding on one side but it somehow survived the trip. Overall I’m somewhat satisfied with the item but the seller could have done much better and therefore I’m neutral.
