This shop gets an A+. I have purchased from this seller for years. Never unhappy, always pleasantly surprised.

The typewriter is beautiful. It’s in perfect condition and I’ve used it every day since I got it. It helps me focus and I don’t find myself taking the breaks I normally do when I write on my computer. It’s pretty great

The typewriter is in excellent working condition, just as described! Shipping was fast and it was carefully packed and included a user guide! Great communication throughout. Excellent buying experience!!
