Just a quick note to let you know how happy I am with my shipment! It already arrived today and exceeded my expectations. The craftsmanship of all the baskets is great; one of the Gambibgo Pot Baskets in particular has some of the finest weave and artistry I have seen. Thank you so very much for including Alaska in your shipping policies and for shipping the baskets so lightning fast, I honestly didn't expect them for several more weeks and it was such a wonderful surprise.
