Ive had a delivery today that I’ve been waiting nearly 3 months for, it wasn’t long before I felt quite disappointed, If you look at the picture you will see why.

Now I’ve been thinking, you know when they print something like a penny black wrong and it makes it worth a fortune, do you think I will get away with charging more for these “rare” airbrushes.

I'd get in touch with them John and tell them they either let you have these at a big discount or send them back and get them to do it right next time. I mean , scalemorelshop ?, really!! What a bunch of rickheads! Cheers tony
 
Oh, bummer... :(
Both misspelled in two places - and a comma (,) instead of a dot (.)

I vote for super-rare priceless item!!! :D

Unfortunately when buying from China you pay up front and hope you get your stuff, I've emailed them to see what they are going to do about it, I've dealt with them for a few years now and they have always been very fair.
 
I think you should have visited www.engrish.com before your purchase to get an understanding of the chinese peoples grasp of english grammar :eek:. There is one way you could fix it if the supplier wont play ball. It involves a dremel, metal sanding disk and lots of time
 
You could get the surface ablated by a laser marking company, then pad print what you really wanted. Get in touch with www.lasermarked.com they are by far the best in the country. ;)
 
I have some Star Wart products and some Star Wnrs stuff for sale....totally legit stuff, honest

and CD instead of CO
Yes, that was one of the two misspellings I saw.

Never underestimate the power of Engrish!

Jokes aside, if you really ordered that many surely they can't expect you to pay for these ones...?

I really did order that many, plus compressors, spray booths and many others things, fortunately it’s only the airbrushes I had branded, I’m looking forward to what they have to say, I deal direct with the factory so they can’t blame anyone else.
