- _***1 (20)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufThe recent music CD purchase was reasonably priced, order processed without delay & the CD shipped promptly. The song selection & sound quality of this CD are very nice. This seller’s reply to my question via email provided the information I needed in order to make the purchase of this music CD. Overall, I would buy from this seller again. Other seller’s I contacted sent an auto-reply stating they receive too many E-messages therefore they do not answer questions re: their products!Heartstrings (Nr. 156605713697)
