Faux Shiny Brushed Aluminum Textured Binder

I ORDERED THIS ITEM BELIEVING FROM THE DESCRIPTION THAT IT WAS METAL. I WANTED A METAL RING-BINDER. THE RING BINDER IS ACTUALLY A STANDARD VINYL RING BINDER WITH GRAY TEXTURED PRINTING THAT VAGUELY RESEMBLES METAL. I CALLED ZAZZLE, ASKED TO RETURN FOR REFUND. . THE PHONE ATTENDANT WAS NICE AND PROMISED A REFUND, SAID I COULD KEEP THE ITEM. I WAS REFUNDED ONLY $18 OF THE TOTAL PRICE OF $26. THE WHOLE EXPERIENCE WAS A WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY. METAL CANNOT BE PRINTED.

Overall, I love my new BOS. I am currently in the process of updating and "modernizing" my original BOS, and THIS is the product I chose to house all of my information in, and so far, it is working out wonderfully. With THIS product, and its 3-ring binder that allows for ease of page insertion and removal, I am able to put my pages in wherever I want to in the book, in whatever order I want to, which I was UNABLE to do with my original, where the pages were sewn in to the binder. Also, it is made large enough to accommodate a multitude of pages; plenty to complete any large project. It has layered pocket inserts on BOTH the front AND back covers, for extra storing of papers/clippings, and it is made from a durable hard plastic material (regular binder). Although I am pleased with how it did come, I was actually expecting it to look more like what was pictured in the photo that was advertised. The advertisement says that the item is "blue-green" in color and the DESIGN of the book also APPEARS to be made of a "faux leather" FABRIC, NOT simply a design PRINTED onto a PLASTIC binder. And the book I received is more of a "gun metal grey" or "light black" color.

I was very pleased with my book. I took pictures & displayed it on FB . I love the fact that I could completely design everything. Awesome was very pleased.
