Your accurate and transparent description guaranteed that the pin didn’t disappoint.”

My first game and I was fortunate enough to buy it from Brett. He was awesome from start to finish. He's got integrity, he's fair, honest, and does everything he says he's going to do and WAY more!

I've dealt with Brett twice. Once when he went out of his way to try to help me get a Doctor Who prototype topper onto my machine that was missing a topper.

Brett was great to deal with and just an all around great guy!

That proactive approach clearly demonstrates» Read morethat he cares and stands by his work/machines. I would definitely buy another pin from Brett and recommend him without hesitation!
