I recently bought an Ebelskiver pan from Tom Neitzel.  I am very pleased with the transaction, the packing, his good communication and the lovely pan.  He sent pictures, and his verbal description was spot on and he shipped it quickly.  Thanks Tom


Tom is a very nice man Mary. I'm surprised he did not have a dozen ebelskivers in there with that pan.  :o ;D

Yes Perry, I agree about Tom - he's a nice fellow indeed!  In fact there are quite few nice people in this community.  I have been very happy with everyone I have received items from whether they were purchased or not.  ;)

Glad it got there safe.  Wish the international shipping wasn't so stiff.

I purchased a few skillets from Trevor Lawrence last week which arrived yesterday.  OMG, I am so impressed-!!!  

I've been around the eBay circuit buying collectibles for some years now.  I have NEVER received a more professionally packaged shipment than what I received yesterday from Trevor~!  

Most importantly, the three pieces of cast iron I purchased from him arrived in PRISTINE (and then some) condition!  Trevor has cast iron restoration down to a fine science, let me tell you!  I'm thrilled to have these pieces in my collection now!  I'm so impressed with their condition- I will probably never use them, ha!

Trevor- the detail mindedness in which you handled our transaction is something you should be very proud of!  Let me know when you have other items you want to sell!

Many Thanks!
 :), Suzie!

Recently bought an ERIE 8 DO cover from Bill Gallegor.  Good communication, well-packed, prompt delivery, and fits my orphaned DO like a dream!  Those old ERIE's fit together like hand in glove!

Thanks Bill!
Best Regards,
Neal

Just received a flop griddle I purchased from Nancy DiGeroloma.  EXCELLENT packing job, box in box with zero chance of movement.  Great job Nancy--thank you.

I bought two pieces at two different times here recently from Bill Corum. He is a good person to do business and his packing is excellent. Any pieces that I sell, I am thinking about sending them to Bill, so that he can package them for me for shipment.

Just had an excellent transaction with Stuart Lowery on a camp oven lid.  Package arrived in bomb-proof packaging taking me several minutes to crack the code and reach the inside.  Cardboard surrounding the lid and handle, tightly wadded paper to prevent movement inside the box, reinforced taping on all corners to prevent any punch through and extra cardboard insert across the top. Great job--thanks Stuart.

A big thank you to Brian Vick. He had the #7 Smiley I wanted. The pictures he emailed me didn't do it justice. It's beautiful. It came very well packed. Double boxed with more packing peanuts than I thought you could fit in them. Like he said, if they break this pan, they would have to do it on purpose.

I want to Thank Harry Riva once again for helping me complete my set of Wagner Ware DO's.  Harry located and shipped a #11 Wagner Ware trivet to me in a "bomb proof" box.

Recently completed a swap of pieces with Glenn Springer.  Since I'm offshore, my wife was at first frustrated, yet impressed with the level of care in packaging trying to break into it.  Piece arrived in great shape--great transaction. Thanks Glenn.

Recently completed a swap with Tom Neitzel.  The piece arrived perfectly packed AND he gave me great directions on how to pack what I was sending back to him.  My end of the transaction was a bit slow due to a virus going through my kids but Tom's part was amazing!  THANKS Tom!

After seeing a recent post about my quest to find a user chef skillet, Stuart Lowery generously reached out to me to offer me one of his. Even after he realized that he had not two but one, he still insisted that the offer stood, and even also offered me a skillet griddle that he had run across while searching his collection. Anybody who would offer his skillets to to a WAGS member who will use and love them, rather than sell them to random eBay buyers for an exorbitant profit is someone with a true appreciation of cast iron.

Of course, the skillets were expertly packed, and Stuart was absolutely great to deal with. Thank you Stuart!

I'd like to give big kudos to Bill Gallegor, who offered me one of his Lodge woks after seeing me post about an unfortunate experience I had buying one off of eBay that turned out to be damaged.

Bill was great, from start to finish. Starting with him contacting a complete stranger out of the kindness of his heart, to the big finish ... me receiving a really great wok, in really great packaging, from a really great WAGS member. The complete opposite of my eBay wok experience.

Thank you Bill!

Corinne Wetzel recently sold me a nice little #3 Wagner pie logo skillet for my niche collection. She trusted me enough to send it prior to receiving payment and it arrived securely packaged and in the condition she described. It's nice to know there are honest, trusting people in the world and on WAGS.   

Thanks, Corinne!
