- p***e (20)- Feedback left by buyer.Past yearVerified purchasePurchased this to replace mine that had been lost in a move. Fair price, having the original packaging was a nice touch. The item was precisely as described. There was a bit of a delay in shipping - purchased on the 1st but not shipped until the 5th and no communication about why the delay, so took one star off of shipping time for this - not a big deal but prefer prompt shipping or communication if otherwise. Would gladly purchase from seller again, honest and fair seller.Cost Plus World Market Retro MCM PATISSERIE 4 Piece Cake Pie Carrier Storage (#176521418431)

Great price for the magazine. It arrived well packed and in good condition. I can't speak to the shipping time, we had a postal strike in my country and everything was delayed. I did get a notification that it had been shipped, and that happened quickly. All in all great quality for my money and I'd really like to deal with this seller again.
