    Seller shipped promptly and item arrived on time, securely packed with no damage. Listing stated 5-cup container, but it was 3.4-cup. Seller responded quickly and issued a partial refund without hassle. I kept the item and appreciated the smooth resolution. Courteous, professional, and accommodating throughout. Highly recommend—A++++ seller!

    These arrived quickly and in great condition. They are beautiful marbles and I am so happy with this purchase. I got an amazing deal... I could have easily been charged more for these high quality little treasures. This seller is fantastic as well! They had great communication throughout the entire transaction, and even combined the shipping for me which I am so grateful for since I got such a variety of colorful nostalgia! I found my new favorite store. I highly recommend!! 😁
