Actual Customer Comment:
"Thank you very much for your follow-up emails. Yes, our model rocket arrived without problems and me and my son are in the process of getting it assembled. He's very impressed with the kit and I'm very impressed with your level of service and interest after the sale. Your efforts have definitely made an Apogee convert of me. I'll make sure our future rocketry purchases all say 'Apogee' on the invoice. " -- Mike Dwyer
