the item would have been just what i needed , size and color are great. Unfortunately I just opened the box. ( I was getting married and did not have the space for it until now). There are several chips, and even more troublesome is a crack down the side of the piece. The crack is not allowing a good grip when inserting the wood pegs into each other, creating a wobbly situation. Had i opened the box earlier I would certainly have returned it. I wonder if there is anything that you could do to help me in this matter.
