Hi Tom! Glad your still alive...bummer I won't inherit the Vision Command I
sold ya! :)
The buyer said it looked like it was opened, but the seal was still intact. I
ended up giving him a decent refund to keep him happy, so I guess this issue is
resolved. It's nice to see so many of you answer and help me out! I'll be sure
to return the favor.
