- e***k (348)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letztes JahrBestätigter KaufVery dissatisfied. Oi purchased this item to give as a Baby Shower gift. It was listed as New. Not as new or used. When it was delivered the item was in its original box which had been roughly torn into. Then packing tape was used to tape it together. It was listed as seller doesn't accept return. I contacted the seller expressing my concerns. His description was misleading. He messaged me back saying, “Sorry bout that.” I’m stuck with an item that’s not presentable to give as a gift.hiccapop HP-WWCL Wipe Warmer and Baby Wet Wipes Dispenser (Nr. 365304278698)
