    So last month, I ordered a breast binder from EaB Medical. It arrived and I started using it to hold my "breast" Swell Spot. It worked great. It's lined and very comfortable. No shoulder issues as it's a "tube top". Really helping my truncal LE.  So I decide to order two more and I got them yesterday. Well, apparently my first one had mislabeled packaging. When I put on one of the new ones, I noticed it seemed tighter. So I checked the inside and sure enough, the new ones are marked M and my first one was marked L !!  And yet it had been helping! I went and found my invoice and I didn't misorder,, it says M on the invoice. My original package is long gone, but I'm guessing that someone put a L inside a M package. Oh well,,, in the future I'll be sure and check the actual garment for the right size!   I just thought it was funny that it helped despite being a little too big.  It was just lately that I noticed that it was starting to kinda slide down on me and I was having to tug it up more. I don't think that will be an issue with these!

    Maybe that was a good method for "easing" into wearing that item. Just think about the person who orders the large & gets the smaller size (assuming the mix-up also went the other way!) They'll imagine they gained weight or became super swollen...

    good point!  I didn't think of that.  Would be really bad that way.

    Liberal return policies are nice but could lead to these scenarios! Will appreciate those quality control slips saying packed or checked by XYZ a little more in the future...
