Received my first Christmas in July piece

And it was broken. It was the Illuminated angel by Valerie. The face was chipped off, pretty substantially, in two places. Back she goes. I have another one coming that's supposed to be for a gift. We'll see how that one looks. Can't reorder as it's sold out.

Why is it, when I have a 50/50 guess at something, I'm always 100% wrong?

Well, that's disappointing! {#emotions_dlg.thumbdown} I hope the other one is okay. Of course if it is in good condition, you'll have the tough decision whether to keep it or give it as a gift as originally planned.

I'm so sorry that your angel was damaged. Hopefully they will get more in stock so you can get a replacement

I'm so sorry to hear that. That is so disappointing. I can't imagine that they don't have time to get more in stock before Christmas. Keeping my fingers crossed that they will have another one for you.

It's really not that big a deal.

Re: Received my first Christmas in July piece

Received my second angel today. It's also going back. The paint had flaked off in places on one of the sleeves. While I was looking at it, glitter fell from one end of my kitchen table to the other. And, like the first one I got, it absolutely reeked. Horrible smell. At $49, including shipping, I expect better.

So sorry to hear both of your angels had issues! Although our angel was fine, we did get some very poor quality items that I'm sending back...so I can relate to the disappointment.

Sorry you got some bad angels gigdet. So disappointing for that to happen when you are so looking forward to getting them.
