    Seller was responding fast and sent out the item soon after purchase. Item was as advertised and packaged securely. For some reason ebay made it cross the US from west to east two times, but at no fault from the seller. I was very happy with the price I paid for. Would recommend the seller for further purchases.

    Deck arrived in "working" condition with cosmetic scratches on top of deck as shown and described. Delivery time was good considering the distance. Deck was packed well and not damaged in shipment. Considering the condition of the deck as it was described, it was a good value. Thank you.
