Round Ghana Basket

Jan 27, 2018 | By Kay

When I received the basket, it was all bent up and out of shape. I tried everything I knew to get it back in shape. No Luck!! I am really disappointed that it is not usable.

Owner Response: Our baskets from Ghana ship to us stacked tightly in order to save considerable shipping expense. Wetting them should help with reshaping, but our customer care team will contact you to resolve your concern. We want you to be happy with your experience with Serrv!

A beautiful basket squashed!

I sent for this basket in turquoise and the colors are beautiful but it is really squashed.I called to return it immediately and the woman I spoke to said to put something in it to straighten it out.For 44 dollars I didn't expect that advice.I guess they are shipped from Ghana crushed. I would not recommend this basket to anyone.

Owner Response: Thank you for bringing this to our attention! We do reshape the baskets prior to shipping to customers. We're so sorry that your basket didn't receive proper attention. Please call Customer Care if you want to return this basket. Our apologies!
