Is it me or is it me ?

Purchased some project life cards for scrapbooking. Seller was slow in sending :mad::mad:
Eventually they arrived & not only do they not resemble photo / only sent smaller size & these were not actual cards.
They were cut from 12 x 12 sheets of paper ? & again not from series she advertised she was sending
Contacted her she didnt think that it matters that she choose smaller cards & that none of them were shown in photo or matched description.

is it just me ??????????????:eek::eek::eek:
or am i entitled to get what i paid for :o:o:o

    Just open a SNAD case and explain that you do not have what you paid for and want to return for a full refund.

    Not much use if they don't fit the Project Life binders! I think some craft sellers think they can claim something like Project Life is a style/type of item and not a specific brand. I remember when Smash Books were all the rage and seeing lots of sellers listing Smash Books that were actually just much cheaper no-brand notebooks.

    Hermia,
    I think you are right, they don't realise its a BRAND.:mad::mad: The cards in the photo drew my attention & thought they would be perfect both sizes.Instead she sends me a random lot of paper not even the correct sizes, as she'd cut them herself.:eek::eek: Interesting enough she & another seller are using same photos & description.
    So no idea who has the original branded cards;););)

    I wonder if the OP wants to buy some not very square engineer squares? I promise you will receive err well something :) I wouldnt mind is they were 50p from China but they are not :(

    Ebay is nothing but interesting :) Ebay is like a misprinted label for a box of chocolates?
    The label shows chocolates but who knows whats inside :)

    Ordering more junk now.... I wonder what useless item i will receive next?
