    Fantastic Service on this sale, thank you! :-) Great pricing and superior service. I wrote a poor review on my phone purchase recently but it wasn't totally fair. Most of the poor service was due to my personal circumstances and outside your teams control. I'm sorry about the last. If you send me a new one, I can revise it...! I would like a brand new phone out of a wrapped box just to ease my mind right now. Thank you so much! :-)
