This letter is to acknowledge that we have received and reviewed your request letter. On behalf of the team here at Maple Mountain Outfitters, I am sincerely apologetic that the Mountaineer (Item #51-6131), which you purchased for $159.95, plus $5.56 for shipping did not meet your expectations. Maple Mountain Outfitters strives to (provide/offer) quality products and is committed to putting out products that satisfy our consumer needs.
