    This did not have a original box, it was sold unboxed. I wish buyer had contacted me PRIOR to feedback. I sent a full refund as soon as I got the notice the buyer was unhappy. This was shipped by a third party, as I was out of town. If you look at my feedback, I have excellent feedback and many comments on how well I package and ship items.
