    It’s a little discouraging that this turned from Red Chrome to a dull red metallic that I received today.  They even changed the description on the website.

    I saw one posted on eBay @Vedderman23 and it didn’t look like I expected it to. That’s disappointing.

    Did anybody hear from Ames Bros on why it changed from the red chrome?

    Reaching out to them.  I assume there was an issue with the foil, but it would have been nice to be notified about It on a $200 print instead of just changing it and thinking no one would notice.

    In my experience 10Club and Ames will take back anything misrepresented in listings. We never have enough time to read these things, and I've sent a couple back that I felt were incorrect, no issue.

    Yeah I would assume there was some sort of issue with the foil too. Just a bit of a bummer.

    According to Ames:  We did switch the paper stock due to technical issues we were having with the printing. It’s a vast improvement from the mirror stock that just wasn’t taking the ink we had hoped, so we made the call on the fly. We are much happier with the final product, but understand your question. Hopefully this clears up any concerns.
