Review by Jay Greenstein for Wedding Invitation Kit White/Black Pocket 25ct

At this point, I cannot begin to tell you how angry I am. For my son’s wedding I purchased one hundred “Black & White Pocket Invitation Kits,” Number 2150033, manufactured by Masterpiece Studios of North Mankato MN.
As received, the kits appeared to have no defects. When I attempted to use them, however, a number of serious problems emerged.
1. The “pockets” on virtually every invitation were so poorly glued that they popped apart when the RSVP card and envelope were inserted. Simply lifting the card by the edge of the pocket was often enough to cause the two glue joints to fail.
2. The dies used to punch the sticky-button sheets are defective, so that on the same sheet, some buttons could not be pulled free without tearing them and some pulled free along with the bottom covering.
3. One box was missing both the sticky sheet and the sealing-circle sheet.
4. One box contained four RSVP cards that had not been perforated, and which appear to have just been tossed in along with the invitation sheets.
5. Several of the black pockets were unusable because of defects in the paper.
6. Several black pockets were unusable because the white tape used to glue the pocket closed had slipped to the side and was visible.
After two days of re-gluing the defective pockets I found that several more pockets had been ruined during the gluing, leaving me short. I sent a letter, detailing the problems to Masterpiece Studios, via their email system, detailing the problems.
They never responded. I called, but they refused to deal with their problem. Instead they referred me to the original seller. In fact, they seemed uninterested in the problems I mentioned and asked for details on none of them.
I then contacted my dealer, and informed them of the need to get the invitations out, as they were already late because of the time lost doing the repair. They said they would request that Masterpiece Studios ship a kit via two-day air. That was acceptable, so I agreed. Masterpiece did sent a kit, but it was not sent that day, so two days became three.
The replacement cards did not suffer from the gluing problem and I assumed my problems were over. I was going to let the matter drop, but today I had two cards returned because of a defect in addressing. I opened them before discarding them, and looked at the invitation to see if my gluing had held up. The glue bond had not failed, but on opening the card I was horrified.
The white invitation card was peppered, everywhere, with black ink, especially, where the doubled thickness of the pocket pressed against the card. It had transferred from the inside face of the black paper. The RSVP card and envelope, too, had been blackened, by the inside of the pocket.
The sight that greeted those I invited to my son’s wedding wasn’t the elegant formal invitation I printed, and which Masterpiece Studios promised. Instead, it looked as though I was trying to imitate such an invitation with a bottom-of-the-line do-it-yourself, made in China, kit. I’ve uploaded a picture to photobucket [...] ), though, because it was taken with my phone’s camera it doesn’t show how badly marked the card is. Note: What appears to be defects in the photo are actually the transferred ink marking the paper.
