Martha Stewart Punches

Not sure if this is the right thread for this query, but here goes, I purchased lots of Martha Stewarts punches for craft and they are not cheap, but have lovely detail. Recently I purchased two punches that was advertised on Amazon and received the 2 punches that I cannot use as apparently they are support to be sold with another part to use them. I was not aware of this when I saw them advertised. When I got back to the seller I was told I could them back put I would have to pay for the postage and also they punches would not have to been open but how could I know what was wrong with it if I could not open it.

Very disappointed considering that I paid for postage to get them and pay for postage to send them back, not good!

    DSR would entitle you to your outward postage back but not your return postage (if they told you this by durable means, but not going into that) so you could try reminding them of the DSR.

    The fact they need another part to make them work is your fault for not doing your own due dilligence on the product unless they clearly state they work as delivered.

    Have you tried looking what they go for on eBay? Some Martha Stewart punches sell for more than original price on there. Maybe you could sell them?
