No problem with the paint

"No problem with the paint but the packing & damage to the brushes showed a complete lack of care. Your complaints department acted to sort it & replaced them. Unfortunately again damaged. Sorted by withdrawing charge. I would have preferred to have got what I ordered. You are being let down by a lack of care in your packing area."
