- 8***a (145)- Feedback gegeven door koper.Afgelopen maandGeverifieerde aankoop1) The CD was very well packaged -- the chance of any shipping damage was ~zero. 2) It was annoying that packing and delivering to the USPS took 4 days, during which time there seemed to be a blizzard of unnecessary emails from the ebay system robots. All I really needed was: purchased confirmed in the hands of the carrier scheduled delivery done 3) I'm not blaming the seller for this, since I suspect they have no real control of ebay's self-promotion.
