Excellent transaction, thank you! Received item exactly as described and quickly. Packaged very well too, especially for such a large item coming from Japan. I was very nervous buying such a large value transaction on eBay from Japan however it turned out better than I could imagine or hope for. Excellent communication and very patient answering all my questions. I would be privileged, honored, and fortunate to do business with this Seller again. Highly, highly recommend this Seller!
