DISCOUNT KISS KASKET $1,200 (does not incl. shipping)

• NOT A KISS FA,N BUT BEST CASKET I COULD AFFORD AT SHORT NOTICE/. SOLID WOOD FURNISHINGS. GLENDA I AM SO RSORRY MY WIFE GLENDA  ★★☆☆☆
  
  
• Ordered the Jimmy Buffet Casket, got this instead. Fail.  ★☆☆☆☆
  
  
• I want to rock and roll all night and party every day and now I can forever! Cant wait to die.  ★★★★★
  
  
• Kasket arrived already containing the decomposing corpse of what seemed to be some sort of deformed man wearing white face paint. I cross-referenced the dessicated carcass with the members of KISS on the sides, but it didn’t match up with any of them. Peter Criss turned up the next day to give me an exchange coffin, though, so it all turned out OK. Good quality coffin.  ★★★★☆
  
  
• Avid casket collector here. I’ve never heard of this “KISS” band before, but after a beginners box of this quality I might just have to give their records a whirl down at the ol’ parlor! I look forward to seeing more of their casket work in the future.   ★★★☆☆
