Beth Cole

My first order with this company was very pleasant. I was able to open an account very quickly and place an order immediately. The shipping was very quick and I received my order within 3 days which is amazing considering I live in a small Northwestern Ontario community.  Thank you for giving me what I was looking for at a very competitive price.
