  1. As always another superb transaction, with two items being posted together and postage being refunded on one in stamps. You know what you are buying as condition of covers fully explained, with a precise description, unlike other vendors who just state "see scan". Perfect packing and rapid delivery. A most highly recommended outstanding five-star seller, who is a credit to eBay. Thank you.

  2. A great selection of items, at an attractive price. I chose to buy because the listing had good photos of all the pieces. And... the postage was sensible (umteen times I never order from sellers because of daft "p&p"). Great vendor, with lots to choose from. My goods came very carefully packaged, much better than most of the similar things I've bought from other sellers. A1 seller!

  3. Extremely quick transaction yet again from this highly recommended trader. My item arrived securely packed in a cardboard backed envelope with additional cardboard protection inside. The letter was exactly as described/pictured and it represented good value given it's age, content and uniqueness. It is also worth noting the very reasonable cost of postage.
