    It was a positive experience in dealing with this Ebay Seller. The goods as described. I was a little apprehensive at first, but this is usual when dealing with 2nd hand item. I received the CD of David Newman. It was pack with TLC and arrived quickly. The CD were in playable condition. Good value! Minor damage only to jewel plastic cover. Still reccomended to all and I would buy from this Ebayer again. Thanks.
