One of these things is not like the other

I ordered four of these shawls, three arrived packaged the same way and in the same ivory colour as I ordered. However the fourth one arrived packaged differently, in a different colour, with a different tag and appears to be a completely different brand. I am somewhat irritated by this as they are for my upcoming wedding, and now I need to find something else. The three that arrived as ordered were lovely.

I give this book three stars because the two stories featured are vastly different, and one is better then the other.
"The Switch"
Well, I read this book a long time ago, so I don't remember the characters names, but I do remember the details.
It begins with a woman feeling the anguish of lost love. Her partner was killed in the terrorist attacks of 9/11, and she is longing to find a new partner. In a bookstore, she meets a kindred spirit who calls to her lonliness.
Now, this is where the story gets real interesting. The hero and the heroine are both fascinated with the world of BDSM. So, the growth of their love really takes place over one weekend, where the two spend...and interesting time learning and discovering about what fascinates them sexually. But, although the heroine feels for the hero, she is looking for something different. She is looking for a man who can be both dominate and submissive, which I suppose in the underground world of BDSM is called a 'switch'. Is the hero the person she is looking for?
Well, you'll have to read that for yourself.
Personally, I thought the book was okay. The writing wasn't bad, and for the first half of the story I was a bit intrigued. Yet, the more I read, the more I became bored with the story. I just couldn't get into the whole 'switch' thing going on. It really broke the flow of the read for me, and made me question rather the heroine was really in love with the hero.
I give this first part of the book two stars.
"Oath of Seduction" is the best of the two. I remember this book a lot better because it was actually good.
Sharon is an earth woman bound by a contract the planet has with a neighboring race of aliens. The have a pact that exchanges woman for technology and the such. Of course, this may sound a bit archaic, but it's not like the woman aren't given a chance to resist. To make it fair, the woman can choose to be seduced, challenged, or conquerored.
Sharon chooses to be seduced, so Liken, the hero, has a month to seduce her into saying. What you find out later, is that the aliens aren't just picking women at random. They spend years looking for their soulmate, a woman who can bond with their mind and body. Sharon is Liken's mate, so now he has a month to seduce her into knowing it. Yet, there is a catch, and...well...it's a different kind of catch. You'll just have to read it too find out what I mean.
There are some elements of the paranormal because Liken has the ability to look into Sharon's mind. But, the author doesn't focus on that. Sharon's inability to deal with the changes in her life, and her problems with totally accepting all the changes taking place are really fascinating. The story is totally believable, even though it is a sci-fi/paranormal.
I enjoyed the story, so I give it 4 stars

It's not like I was expected, because it has another color, is not the same blue that appears in the picture. And is somewhat large.

It is one those items you never know till you see one up close. Be very careful using one of these.

this is a different product all together from the other "color" options. they have a different type of waistband that is undesirable.

Orderd two of these at once because i live over sea's both of them were not like the one in the picture and each of them are different then each other, i wonder how did they manage that?!
now i could not even ship it back because the shipping is more expensive then the product itself.

I gave it four stars because this is not the same product but is being advertised as such. There is only one window and the material seems cheaper. I hope this isn't the case.

These are not quite the same quality as what you get from Garmin. They are made of a different material. It is less flexible and requires the little rectangle to be in place in order for the band to stay on.

It works, but it's not the one I was looking for

I purchased two of these; one is great. the other not so great. When I use this tool I like to feel a drag so that you know the edge is being straightened out.  There is just a small section of this file that works, the rest of it not good.

So, I thought this was different from Where Waldo the original, but it's not. It has that plus more. So, I ordered the original al and this one thinking they were completely different books. Oops.

It's not about who you know, or who is in your heart.

This is a look into a different kind of lifestyle and how two people are meant to be together.  The other side of this is that these two guys are brothers and that's just weird.

Like the other reviews say, they are not the same band. I loved there last to CD's, but im not so sure if i want this one.

It wasn't what I expected, but someone else may enjoy it.

One kind of worked and the other did not.  It will not stay in place, so when you go to drink, it falls in the way.  So basically, I bought one.
