Horrified the owner explaining the woes of painted shells. She freaked out and swore she would never order those again. She asked me for my number and wrote it down so if she had any questions she could get ahold of me. She was so distraught over the shell thing.
She gave me a crab as a thank you. Here he is. Harold my new tiny pp. He has so far decided to hang on to his painted shell. I peeled the paint off where I could and the actual shell is beautiful.
