The seller was polite and immediately mailed my product out when I emailed them. I hadn’t heard about my order yet. They had told me there would be a slight delay because the seller was away from home. That was fine with me, I was checking on what day to expect it. They mailed it that day and I received it like a day later it was great 👍🏼
