Clapboard for Movie Director

The item we receivedHollywood Movie Studio Director Clapper Clap Board Signcame missing the nut to hold the bolt into the top so we had to rig it with a wing nut that we found in our tool box. After writing on it once with a white chalk marker we discovered that the painted finish is in fact not chalk board paint but simply black paint so we now have to color over the writing with black marker each time we want to write in new information. We purchased this for my 11 year old aspiring movie maker and he is making due with it for the low cost that we paid, however I am disappointed in this purchase and should have paid attention to the reviews closer. It is not worth it to me to pay for return shipping to have these situations remedied so it is just a live and learn lesson for us. Buyers looking for a clapper board that will actually see use of its moving parts on a regular basis should opt for paying for a better quality item.
