Color not as advertised experience

Hi,
Edit: Better side by side comparison pic
To anyone who purchased the Matte Charcoal PLA.
I just received two spools today and the color is way off to what is advertised on the site.

Right: Black PLA

My assumption is someone at the warehouse got the Ash Grey confused with Charcoal and mislabelled the boxes. Or is that indeed the charcoal color?

I haven’t got the AMS to read the RFID as 1, I don’t want to break the seal opening case of a return and 2, the printer is busy

I just want confirmation that it is indeed the wrong colour. That or the website is very misleading,

Looks like Black to me.

That’s black. I don’t know where you get grey from.

Bad lighting.
Not trying to start another blue dress/gold dress debate.

I updated with a side by side. Maybe it’s the plastic that’s giving it a lighter look.

It’s the bag, I have a roll, it’s very dark.

They used to call it matte black but then changed it to charcoal - quite a while ago - as it’s not really true black, I do like it though, it’s probably the refill I get the most
