### ⭐ incompetent merchant who doesn't know his/her products
*by L***D on November 3, 2020*

I wanted the fine filter sponges that were pictured. Received coarse. Complained and got a poorly-worded response including: "Hope you understand, that control of product characteristics and properties realized by its producers personally. Please see below couple of advice, which can help you to make a right choice of product: 1) Please check the detailed description of product characteristics and properties before purchasing. 2) Please take a look feedback of customers, who has already purchased this product in order understand better what to expect from it. " Yes, I should have checked customer feedback, but this response says it all, namely: "we are incompetent and not responsible for what we do."
