After inspection, now try out the equipment to be sure it is as you expected and will satisfy your requirements because if it is not, then you will want to contact the merchant to arrange for an exchange or return. Get a 'R.A' (return authorization) from the merchant where you made the purchase prior to returning the item since this is normally a requirement. Always do a return using a traceable, insured means of shipping. We suspect that you received exactly as you wished to purchase for bjj and are excited to use it as often as possible.
