Great product if it's the original

Change below! First let me say the real product works great! I use it mainly for training at Olympic exercises, but also on the way to away games on the bus. I got mine as a gift last year. The mount works well as you can use it in landscape and portrait mode. I would give this % stars but I will put 1 star for this to be noticed so it doesn't happen to anyone. A colleague asked me to buy him 2 so he could use one in the same capacity and give the other to his daughter who is a gymnast and loves to dance. When I received the package today, it was a COMPLETELY different tripod and mount. I don't know what happened, but I've already requested a return to Revane. I really want to order it again hoping to get the original but I'm afraid the same will happen. Everything would be fine if the subject was comparable, but the mount doesn't rotate so you can only use the landscape. So if you happen to be using a tripod on a pole, your only shooting option is portrait, unless you can crank it up during setup, which is unlikely to work on modern phone sizes. Arkon, please let me know how to buy a real one! :) EDIT: I called Amazon and they refunded me for the wrong items. They also find out why the product I received is wrong. They check the inventory and will contact me when the problem is fixed.
