    First time international customer. This rare hard to find item has been on my list for a few years now. Normally, do a search on ebay by the company name, not the actual item's name. Decided to search for the item's name. It came up!!! Very well priced and well wrapped. Shipping took reasonable amount of time given it was shipped outside the US. Friendly & easy to deal with. Highly recommend!!! Will purchase again if they sold this company's rare hard to find items again. Thank you!!!
