- e***v (493)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseI was sent the wrong color of the item and didn't want that color. The seller responded quickly and had me go through the return process. It was a pain to have to get it wrapped and prepared and driven to the post office, but, I know mistakes happen too. I just received my refund so am thankful for that. Sellers just really need to check orders better and make sure and send the right item. But it's fine now. They were nice and didn't give me a hard time or anything. So I'm glad it got resolved.Stone & Co Leather Shoulder Bag Purse MEGAN Brown Two Tone (#265639836048)
