Try contacting them - I am willing to bet they will take the fabrics you don't like back! Might even just send you a refund without making you return the fabric - they are usually really good about that sort of thing.
I've used them for years and years, and have had very few problems. Problems I have had have been resolved quickly. They cut an extra inch for each yard, which is nice. Sometimes I'll get the last bit of a bolt and they stick a "jackpot!" sticker on it and just give you the extra fabric for free - I've ordered a half-yard and received over a yard with the jackpot sticker - more than double the amount of fabric I paid for!
Their prices have gone up in the last 2-3 years, so I don't buy quite as much as I used to. That's probably a good thing in some ways but I miss the bargains. On the other hand, it's still hard to beat their prices.
