Buyer beware this seller sends the wrong item I texted 3 time's for help to get the correct item I ordered. Seller NEVER got back to me. I had to contact ebay and they gave me the return shipper. And I still haven't received credit or a response from Buyer. Now I will probably have to contact ebay to get my refund. So sad.
