Fraudulent advertising!
Bought several packages of these liners, and while I do like them very much, they are not the dimensions advertised on the package. How surprised and disappointed I was to discover that these were an inch short for my 48" shelves! They are NOT 12" x 48", they are 11.75" x 47". I read the fine print on the Amazon product page more thoroughly in retrospect, and did discover that while the seller lists the 12" x 48" dimensions in the product description, as well as on the product's label, they also indicate a set of "actual dimensions" as 11.75" x 47.025", but why in the world would there be advertised versus actual dimensions of a simple, flat product? The label on the product says 12" x 48" without any mention anywhere else on the packaging or the product that those are not the actual dimensions - that information is only on the Amazon web page that contains the detailed product description (well below the basic description that is shown with the product picture and price). For every package of four liners, at $35 per package, customers are being ripped off about $2.88 per package (12x48 = 576 square inches; $35/576 = $0.06 per square inch; the missing 12 square inches x $.06 = $0.72; $0.72 x 4 liners per package = $2.88). I have purchased six packages over the last several months (but just started using the liners today), so the company has scammed me out of $17.28. Imagine how much the company is scamming from customers when you multiply the $2.88 per package by hundreds or thousands of customers. Certainly, we could all be better at reading the fine print on the Amazon product web page before ordering, but who in their right mind would think that a product's label and advertisement are fake and, thus, should further investigate the fine print to look for the "actual" information?! Shame on this company. Perhaps the Federal Trade Commission would be interested in what I view as fraudulent advertising that is resulting in running a scam on customers. I think I will ask the FTC if they would take a look at this. I might also suggest that Amazon take a closer look at how it is scamming customers on behalf of this seller by allowing the fake 12"x48" dimensions to be advertised with this product.
