Supply of 0.5 mm grey board card

The product (10 x A4 sheets of 0.5mm grey board card) was fine. The packaging less so, as it had come apart though not enough to lose the contents. I suggest taping across the package as well at along the join.

I wanted to buy something simple

I wanted to buy something simple. Your inventory came out as something I wanted. Place an order? No you want me to open an account. Which I did. I gave you my details and created an account. Email and a password.
Soon as I went on to the main site again I was asked to log in. No worries. Email and password. That ive just given while opening the account is not recognised.
Are you deliberately taking the piss? Or are you just relying on your web advisor to mess it all up for you. Or are you capable of messing it up yourselves. You have lost a customer through this. I am not a well man and cannot deal with stress anymore. Hence why I do this hobby.
All I wanted were a few coach lights pick ups. But I'll get them elsewhere now.
