    Excellent condition and quality of product, nicely packaged, even better than as described. Unfortunately the cost of shipping was more than the cost of the product. I don't mind, and don't recall whether this was clearly mentioned upfront, but something to watch for.

    Thank you for the sincere feedback: shipping is a problem for small items. I have been looking for suitable alternate solutions, found none so far other than shipping first class withe risk of loosing the item in the USPS system.
