A eBayer that is a genuine pleasure to deal with! Item was as described...new in factory sealed box. And it was shipped quickly. AND the Post Office did not send it on a round the country trip. It operates as expected. Verrrrry pleased and highly recommended. Thank you and I hope Santa brings you everything you asked for!
