Only 9 oz in Giant Bag :(

Only 9 oz in Giant Bag :(
UPDATE 10/18/2023:CONTACTED St. Gabriel Organics directly via email. They promptly replaced the item with a newer 10oz package that arrived the next day. Instead of the large box and bag, it arrived in an appropriately sized zip top container.I was quite surprised to receive such a large box and large bag, which contains only 9oz of powder instead of 10oz as advertised and listed on box. Bag has not yet been opened in photos. I hope the product works, but feel rather cheated out of that extra ounce. Rather disappointed at this juncture.
Thank you for your feedback

1.0 out of 5 stars Product is likely good. Packaging and Amazon are per usual lacking
Reviewed in the United States on April 22, 2023
1. St. Gabriel, your packaging and above description should be consistent. If you say good for 20yrs in one location then mean it and update it consistently everywhere you share your words. You say 15 here and 20 there…. Also, do not assume Amazon or other vendors will do intelligent things. Put instructions on your website and inside the box. You’ll see why in a minute.

2. Amazon, for once you go ‘green’ by slapping your shipping label directly on the product instead of putting it in a box and affixing your label to your Amazon branded death-box. You do not need to have inspected every product and package you ship, but maybe instruct your underpaid and overworked warehouse staff to put labels somewhere other than over the instructions printed on the product packaging. It takes a brilliant company to make simple look like it’s as difficult as funding a past their prime, growth hormone addict to Mars before the actual richest man alive.
