Trust me--I will NOT accept an inferior element, especially when, as you say,

expensive set.  I simply wanted to know if this is a common problem (I have
never encountered it before) so that I can bring that up to whoever I talk to

has the exact same flaw as the one I returned to them.  (The silver lining is
that while I only sent back the Leonora head, I received both a head and a
torso in return.  Now if I only had another Leonora dress....)
