PSA for October Afternoon Lovers

lilacgal , did you order OA from them? I was looking to see if they were selling "real" OA-I did send an email, but don't expect to hear back yet. I feel like I got really burned when I ordered a bunch of OA from Peachy Cheap and when I received it, it was flimsy, color quality was poor, ect..When I emailed Peachy Cheap, they explained that when OA went out of business, they sold the licensing rights to some folks, and essentially Peachy Cheap was printing their "own" OA.

Needless to say, I was VERY unhappy they were not upfront about that, I just assumed they had bought out a scrapbook store or something that had some stock of it. So as much as I would love to load up from this store, I don't feel like I can buy it until I get confirmation that is not a reprint.

Sorry if that is too "ranty"-I don't usually get my panties in a bunch over stuff, much more likely to let it roll...but passing off your sub par supplies as real October Afternoon ticked me right off.

I made an order too. I love their blue papers so much and I was running low. I ordered the stamp set with the clouds too.

I couldn't believe how BAD it was.  "Sub par" is actually a compliment for the crap they sent.   

I totally agree. I am not sure who I am more irritated at, OA for selling their designs to someone who clearly could not guarantee quality, or PC for just printing garbage. In any case, I made it clear to PC that they had lost me as a customer, not just for the crap I was sent, but because they clearly misrepresented OA products and tried to pass them off as original OA items. In fact, it wasn't until about the 3rd email back and forth with them that they admitted they were not actual OA items. They said they "sourced" them. What a bunch of BS. I probably would have sent mine back if I wanted to make the effort, but I ended up donating it because I was lazy.
