How is the quality of your packaging of The Art of Crochet

10354998_1148587995185651_3271561423243545511_nWe are finding the packaging of copies of The Art of Crochet to be sub-standard with magazines and wool falling off the backing card of issue one due to inadequate taping. I am curious if others are experiencing this. It is frustrating having to spent time making the law margin stock merchantable.

    Same problem, this issue is not exclusive to this particular partwork series though.

    Yep it’s shitfull, and you have to line it up perfectly to reattach them. Too much effort for 75c gross profit, though I am going to sell them all so it’s not all bad.

    How many times can they regurgitate this partwork. They need to space them out better and introduce new partworks at thought out intervals so that a) they are more manageable and b) customers are more likely to take them up. The graphic novels, chess collections etc are all competing for the same customer who would probably take them up if run sequentially but can’t afford to run with two or even three at the ione time. Poor planning!!!!
