I don't blame you, they weren't leather as advertised and the picture was misleading.  Hopefully you'll get a full refund and maybe he'll even add the word artificial to the description.

I'm almost tempted to order one from him and state the same complaints as you..... maybe if he gets enough complaints and refunds he'll change the description.   In the meantime after I see the picture of your new one I'll probably go ahead and order one of those.  I received my order of threaded brass rivets (plain heads) and I think they will work well after drilling out the center of the handle bracket.
