Easy and seamless process from start to finish
I would like to say that I had a great experience. I had no issues with the process of winning by lot, and afterwards the emails that were sent provided all the information I required to pay for my item. Having the items shipped to my address was also very seamless as I was helped out by being provided in house shipping quotes (which I used) as well as links to other courier services if I wanted to arrange shipping myself. I look forward to bidding on more items.
