Quick transaction and fast shipping. Unfortunately, the CD's protective box arrived broken (almost splintered) along the bottom edge. The audio CD itself seems undamaged. I'm assuming the case damage occurred in transit due to something heavy placed on it. The shipper did place a small piece of cardboard around the CD case, but the cardboard and bubble envelope didn't offer much protection from the USPS. I would purchase from this seller again, but would request better packing material.

Seller after my own heart! Cardboarded the CD and wow! Doesn't come in damaged! Wish other sellers had the sense. Don't buy from them and buy from this person!
