It's not metal, the description says metal, this thing is made out of the cheapest plastic known to man. Let me give you an example if you bought 0.25 cent toys for kids that come in a clear round plastic package. This plastic is stronger than these things. It wasn't just packed in an unprotected paper bag! All but one of the clips were broken when they arrived. Yes, this one also broke trying to snap it into place to see what it would look like. If they gave it to you, you would still be disappointed. I hate people who sell crap. This is of course my opinion. Buy it yourself and you will feel the same as me. I even hate writing bad reviews but that sucks.
