Just for clarification I'm not whining. I'm laughing. I like the green, and I was extremely tempted by the flat black. I just thought the whole color choice process was very entertaining, and the blue that was finally decide upon? Hysterical!

I actually like the blue or green or teal or .. whatever it is alot better then what we picked.. I remember the swatch being alittle bluer also freeskip.. however i think that color is unlike any color ive ever seen.. im just glad i didn't get components to coincide with whatever blue.

I am not ungrateful, it is just that I don't think it is worth it to sink more money into a repaint of it since the color isn't what I was expecting (the worst part being I changed my order from black to blue....)

I think I will with-hold judgment until it arrives in person.

I'm so disappointed that you didn't choose for some crazy neon yellow or other crazy 80's color ****. I mean really, how can you go wrong with blaring loud neon pink or whatever?
