    There's nothing better on Ebay than an honest transaction. I had purchased this set of Twilight dolls from seller, which was listed as New, but in a hurry, I didn't read any further. Before mailing, the seller contacted me to make sure I had read the description. Although new, one of the boxes had been damaged and taped. The doll was intact and new. I went ahead w/ it and seller mailed immediately. Truly appreciate the integrity of seller giving me option to choose after I had purchased.
