This review is from: Valley Forge 3-Foot x 5-Foot Nylon United States Flag With Sewn Stripes & Embroidered Stars (Lawn & Patio)
The flag I received was not in any original packaging as shown in the picture. The flag I received was sold by sevenbrothersmercantile. It arrived crammed into a plain brown envelope. It was neatly folded but it wasn't what I was expecting. I have no way of knowing if it is a Valley Forge brand flag made in the U.S. or not. For all I know it's a Chinese import. One of the reasons I picked this flag was because I was going to give it as a gift, so I was disappointed that it didn't come in the packaging for that reason as well. So, I decided to check out the flag since it's not packaged. It has a variety of loose threads and ends that I had to trim or pluck off the flag. Minor issue; nothing I might not expect for something with so much stitching I suppose. The other issue though was that the white stripes were stained with red from the red stripes. Not sure if this is mfr issue (whoever it is) or if this flag was stored in a high moisture environment that led to the bleeding (at sevenbrothersmercantile). Since this is my first flag, I'm not sure if this is common but I did not expect it and it made me unhappy with the quality. The only good news was that the communiction from the sevenbrothersmercantile was good and shipping was timely. However, I'm left with a a flag that's not worth the hassle of trying to return and is also not something I'm happy with to give to someone as a gift. So, essentially, it is now garbage. I'm very disappointed with the vendor that they shipped something that does not match the picture (or at least I certainly can't verify it) and so much for a couple positive reviews by others -- well, at least in my opinion. Good luck to others finding a flag on Amazon. I'm thinking I should purchase locally even though it will cost more so I can see what I'm getting. Buying flags on the internet seems dicey to me now. I really expected to receive exactly what I saw in the picture as that has been the case with all of my many other Amazon purchases.

This review is from: Valley Forge 3-Foot x 5-Foot Nylon United States Flag With Sewn Stripes & Embroidered Stars (Lawn & Patio)
Seven Brothers did fulfill the order for an embroidered flag. But the picture shown is that of a Valley Forge brand flag. That is not what was received. It was a flag stuffed in a 4"x6" brown envelope with no packaging. It is obviously a knock off. It is not so much the product I am unhappy with (don't know how long it will last yet...), but the deception involved. Seven Bro.s should just show the product for what it is. Do not buy from Seven Brothers if you expect to get the name brand product that they show in the picture! Following is communication I had with Seven Brothers. Decide for yourself if you want to do business with them:
______________________________________________ Amazon Communication Center wrote: Hello from Amazon.com. - A potential buyer has sent you the following message about an item you have for sale on Amazon.com: You are deceptive in showing an image of a Valley Forge Flag. I will complain to Amazon and rate you poorly for false advertising. I would have purchased your product regardless of the brand if the picture would have been honest, but do not like to be lied to. ______________________________________________ Flags from SEVENBROS.COM show details 3/17/10 i dont have control of the picture.. i only offer to match their price and quality or better. the flag sent to you is superior in quality and price. return it, dont steal it. please dont hold me to a higher standard than you are holding yourself. clint ______________________________________________ Seller doesn't have control over the image of an item they are selling? Stupidest thing I've ever heard. I must also say I am disappointed that almost a year later Amazon has not required this seller to be truthful.

The ad shows a Valley Forge brand flag. I was sent an Oker brand flag, whatever that is.
