Bought and paid for the book. Seller said it was damaged and they would find another. Then I received a shipping notice. When it didn’t arrive when they said, I waited a week and contacted seller. Received a quick refund. Now it is listed again for twice the price. This seller is a ripoff artist and should be banned from eBay.

  • Great product definitly worth the money.

    Purchased this product so I could learn how to work with LED's. This book was recommended on one of the scale model websites, so far I have found it to be very useful. I would recommend this book to any scale modeler or model railroader wanting to learn how to light their displays.
