It is never good to have to…
It is never good to have to write a bad review especially when you've never had severe issues. When I purchased the Green Patina Necklace & Earrings, upon receiving the item I thought at first that the item was defective and my customer no longer wanted the item because it looked botched. It was flaking and had numerous scratches on it. Of course I returned her money as I wanted my customer to be happy making purchases through me from Africa Imports. This item however was deplorable. In the catalog and online, this item is indeed beautiful. I absolutely love this item, however what I received to give my customer was not gorgeous. The item was extremely oxidized, tarnished to the point that the metallic pieces appeared black. Even if this item was for me, I would not want it being used to promote Africa Imports and their products. I was mortified on seeing the item and even more so, was ashamed to have to lie to my customer saying that the item was out of stock. It is most unfortunate that I am unable to upload pictures to show you the condition in which I received this item.
