    Excellent transaction, shipped promptly. All discs are in great shape. One interesting sidenote is that eBay incorrectly labeled the package as Delivered, when in fact it was still being processed. (At some point it went from Out for Delivery to being in another city about an hour away.) Prematurely designating a shipment as Delivered caused a lot of confusion. The person I spoke to at eBay didn't seem to get it. EBay needs to upgrade their code to more accurately reflect shipment status.
