Yes. I was the other who expressed satisfaction with my transaction with this seller. There are always things that could be better, but in the end I had no issue with this seller. I was actually very happy in the end. However, I do not necessarily promote or degrade anyone specifically as we all have our own experiences in this and other ventures. To explain further, I will add, based again on my own personal experience in collecting phonographs and related items, that I have had only two or three poor experiences in some 15 years. These were, I'm sorry to report, with noted collectors and/or those perported to be "experts" in the field....MAPS members. I wasn't as satisfied in those circumstances. Thus, I feel we need to be careful when publicly slamming a specific individual. That would be my only point for now. Ron

Noted also another subscriber to this list was satisfied. Nice to be aware that there's some balance.
