A 5 star ebayer willing to get the deal done! Vintage Seeburg J jukebox flyer was received as described. Fast shipping and mostly adequate packaging though the flyer was stuck to the packing tape and caused some minor damage when removed....a bit more protection would have been helpful. Would purchase from this seller again!

As described. I was somewhat concerned when this small glass bottle arrived in a soft, barely padded envelope but it was wrapped inside and was not broken (all bottles I've purchased in the past have come well protected inside cardboard boxes).

Exactly as described - in perfect condition. The packaging was done extremely well and the shipping was pretty quick. Too me, the overall value for this transaction is perfect. Excellent communication. Highly recommend this eBay Seller!!!
