Awesome finds with 2J's!!
Intro
Welcome and thank you for your interest and trust in shopping with 2J's. Our goal is to provide the best possible deals for your needs & budget; that's why we're allowing you to determine the price of the item in question, most, or all of our listings by starting with a very low offer. Of course we also add a 'Buy It Now' or ' Best Offer' option in order to instantly buy the item, but for some reason after receiving the 1st offer, that option disappears at times. We don't understand why, but if you'd like to buy any item before the sale ends and don't see that option please contact us via 'ask seller a question' to work it out and be able to get the product to you in time. As our response will show you all of our past transactions leave the custy's completely or more than satisfied with all of the sales, including communication, shipping time & product quality. We want to continue to keep this perfect rep as well in order to be able and continue to provide these insane deals to the community; therefore it is very important that we earn your positive response as well as 5 ⭐️'s in every category. Please, please, please we cannot stress the importance of this more so; so if anything needs to be fixed PLEASE reach out prior to posting that response and don't miss any stars; we need all 5 to be filled in!
