    On time shipping, carefully packed, item just as described! Item is very clean and looks new! I value this seller…..recommend him too. Unfortunately, the sizing is not good for me so I have to return it. I’m really sad to return this though because I’ve been looking for this type of coat for a long time. Oh well that’s life. But truly, I recommend the seller and I will be going back to check his listings.
