I exchanged email with a lady at Oceanic about the cracks. I clearly told her I wanted a refund and WOULD have NEVER bought a particle board stand except it was made by Oceanic.
She offered a replacement.
I will give her the benefet of the doubt that she didn`t see the "REFUND" part since I send her a lengthy email.
She appeared appalled at the cracks. The LFS I bought it from would commit to a refund unless Oceanic does. They also agreed that the cracks were unsafe and NOT to use the stand. So does that mean replacement or store credit?

I WILL NOT use us this stand or a replacement, only solid wood, and now face trying to get an All-Glasss stand and using my "Replacement" stand as a book case or something to store my jij-saw in. :(
Thanks.
