Homebrew PCBs

For what it's worth, recently got some of the inkjet film referenced 
below but it fared no better than the Office Depots and Apollos 
tried. Maybe it was old stock or something.

Whatever, called Screen Printers and informed them that I would like 
to return it, whereupon and to their credit (hopefully mine too 
eventually), they gave me return instructions and no questions asked.
