    Seller sent wrong item and responded "I’m sorry that you received the wrong item. I can offer $7 partial refund and you can keep the items " or "you can return the item and I will send replacement" and finally "we hope you enjoy the item you did not order" This seller worked really hard for this negative review ,other than doing the right thing which was to resend the item I ordered and paid for on their dime. So I got a partial refund for an item I did not order...
