    Seller described the item thoroughly, mentioning the tiny flaws as well. Multiple photographs helped to ensure me of what to expect in the product. The fragile, breakable item was packaged quite securely for its shipment across the country, and arrived safely in a very timely fashion. The seller worked with me to arrive at what we both believed to be an acceptable selling price.

    Received items exactly as pictured and described. Perfect fit for my Technics turntable restoration project. Even the original wood screws were included. The price was right. Shipping cost was very reasonable. The hinges arrived in excellent condition and were well wrapped and packed. Cosmetically they look great and functionally they are perfect. Highly recommended seller. Thank you.
