Review on 📸 Colorbok Light Teal Fabric Post Bound Photo Album - 12x12 Inch: A Stunning Keepsake for Precious Memories by Kim Sanchez

I have previously purchased 2 colorbok fabric scrapbooks from different sellers and I love these albums. Each time the album came in a clear protective sleeve over the fabric and was also sealed in clear packaging. I'm not sure what happened here, but the album that arrived today looks like it's been sitting in someone's workshop for years without a care in protecting the album and side guards inside. When I opened the Revain package I noticed that the album only had a transparent cover, it was not sealed in a sleeve. The unsealed packaging is at the root of the album's remaining problems. The clear sleeve itself was dirty and the paper liner was torn! The open edges of the cloth album were also soiled. I was a bit disappointed but thought I could clean it up a bit. But then I opened the album and found that each of the 10 side protectors had dings and dents with the first page being in the worst condition. And since the sheets are top-loaded, they're dusty and dirty inside, too. I can't use this album without buying new protective sheets and trying to clean the fabric, so I'll just have to return it and hope I do better with another seller. I am determined to have this special colorbok album, teal for my son to match the pink scrapbooks I made for my daughter. I'm so disappointed that it's prompted me to write a review, which I rarely do, even when I'm happy with something!
