They do use the word approximately, however none of the pieces are over the stated size and only one of them is actually the stated size, the rest are smaller, some by a full inch and a half. Several of them have salveges that are included in the measurement as well.

Their e-mail almost sounds like they buy remnants from the Mfg and just sell them without any other processing on their part. Their comment that wool processing changes the size of the product is weird - I have bought a lot of wool in my day and I bought it by the yard - it was always the same 36 inches as when I bought any other fabric. If you buy wool before it is processed then there could be a variation.
So it would be interesting to see what the ad said.
