comedy wallet
By disappointedVerified Buyer from Burlington, IA on 12/29/2009
Gift:
Yes
Best Uses:
Going Out
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Comments about RECYCLED NEWSPAPER BI FOLD WALLETS:

I bought this as a gift. I was not made quite as
well as I hoped, but was ok. Need to be able
to select the comic used. If I could pick the
comic used, I might buy another wallet.

Poor Quality

Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Comments about RECYCLED NEWSPAPER BI FOLD WALLETS:

I ordered the wallet because I wanted it to look like recycled newspaper. It was to be a gift for someone who loves actual paper and ink newspapers and wouldn't think of reading one on-line. But you can't tell that the wallet is made of newspaper because there are no headlines or printing visible on the outside. Just colors from a graphic. Also the fold of the wallet is off so it folds crooked and some of the stitching has come loose.

Comments about RECYCLED NEWSPAPER BI FOLD WALLETS:

I have had two of these wallets, my first lasted me about two years! Not too bad for laminated newspaper! Just like any other wallet, but people will always ask you if you made it, and if they can look at it closer (to read the comics).

Comments about RECYCLED NEWSPAPER BI FOLD WALLETS:

One of the seams split within hours. I returned the wallet. It seemed to be sewn too close to the edge.

Service & Delivery comments:

I returned the wallet for a full refund the day after I received it due to manufacturing defect. Customer service was promt and courteous. This would probably be the saving grace for me to recommend the site to someone else (with the qualifier that I returned my purchase).

I bought this wallet thinking to myself that I was doing something good for the environment and having a little fun with my personal belongings and I love it! I get compliments every time I take it out of my pocket. It's a good conversation piece and a great way to pitch the website to everyone who doesn't know about it.
