I wanted to thank you for the quality of this product as well as the way it was shipped. Not only did it arrive prior to the estimate but it was carefully wrapped. It is appreciated.
Thank you for your kind response. As it turns out, I was able to visit the Argosy on Tuesday. In fact, I arrived shortly after opening and stayed most of the morning, making a number of purchases. I notice that you wrote to me a 10:34 AM, meaning that I was in the store when you sent me an email. One of life's many coincidences... Again, many thanks for your courteous response. Best regards, until my next visit!
