I usually always read the product review on what I buy from amazon. However, I didn't think it was necessary for SOCKS! Although the designs are cute I was disappointed to find that I only recieved 4 socks and not 4 pairs. After I recieved them I read the other reviews and realized that all this info was right there. Had I known this I would not have paid $14 ON 4 SOCKS! Granted, I could have read the reviews but I believe that this is an oversite on the description of the item. I shouldn't need to rely on the reviews to get an accurate description of the product.
