I liked the quick response and by extension the quick shipping. I did not like that they sent 3 out of four items correctly. The fourth clearly was an oops but upon attempting to contact Hobby Heaven...well I guess I was ghosted. Not a big deal but an I am sorry would have been nice.

Excellent quality. Comparable to any high quality sable brush I gave used.
