    Default Soooo Disappointed!

    I ordered 8 charm packs from an online website. One of the ones I ordered is Moda Lakeside Resort. The website I used showed squares of a cabin, a lake, a dock and a tire swing, etc.
    The charm pack has NONE of that. After some research, it looks like those are on a panel. The website has no indication of that at all, I would have ordered a panel if I had known. grrrr!

    Bummer. One of the drawbacks of purchasing online, I suppose. Can you return some of the charm packs in exchange for the printed panel?

    many times charm packs are (coordinates) that go with a panal- or fabric line that has a main fabric and the charms- i've bought charms that pretty much cut off all of the pictures that were part of a main fabric- it is hard to tell what you will get when a yard of fabric is simply cut into 5" squares without taking design into consideration.
    now i only look at charm packs in the lqs so i can fan them out & see what is there- unless they are just blenders/backgrounds.
    you may be able to return your pack you are unhappy with-

    I am so sorry that happened to you. Returning is an option, but a pain to have to send it back. And you lose your shipping money you paid to have it shipped and then you lose the money you are paying to ship it back. I've done it and I've also just kept the item because it's not worth it. Maybe you can order the panel and use the charms to make a quilt with the panel.

    This is what I'll probably do. I emailed the company, so I'll wait for their response.
