I do not believe this was a mistake. I believe this was more a matter of cutting corners and wanting to have a biggest profit margin possible.
A mistake is one mirror. I looked at 3 of them. All 3 were different. The hooks are laid out ion a "L" pattern so that the mirror could be hung vertically or horizontally. The hooks for the vertical hanging were not parallel on any of the mirrors. The hooks for the vertical hanging were not the same distance an any of the three mirrors. Had the hooks been in the same position on the backer board, it still would not have made a difference due to the fact that the backer board was not centered (Not even close) on the back of the mirror.
This mirror will only work as a stand alone mirror. There is not possible way for it to work as a pair. The only way to mount the mirror easily is to use hanging wire linked to two of the hooks. I wanted to use the hooks them selfs and hang them on screws on the wall for a more stable mirror.
I do not know how much a simple mirror is worth. It was oval with a simple pattern on it. No frame. Not even sure it was glass. Felt more like plastic. Either way, I am pretty sure there is a substantial profit in the $50 a piece I spent on them.
