    That can't be good…

    One of the parcels that arrived yesterday contained 100 no-name ink cartridges. My ‘standard’ precaution these days is to film the unpacking of every shipment from China. As I gave the flimsy black shipping bag a 360° in front of the camera, I noticed there was some clear tape with large, bold Chinese writing on it in red (but difficult to read because of the black background) sealing one edge. Upon opening it up, there was a white padded bag sealed with the same type of tape; the words, which I could then read, was along the lines of, “Wind control quality speci…”, which I took to mean “special tape used by quality control inspectors for shipments by air”. That can't be good, I thought to myself, and it wasn't: inside were two clear bags holding 50 cartridges each, looking like “kill rooms” in Dexter but with blue ink instead of red splatter all over the walls, and some ink has escaped the bags and stained my fingers. AliExpress didn't give me the runaround this time when I raised a dispute and submitted the evidence, but issued me a full refund within minutes, and didn't insist on my returning the items by post.

    Five 30ml bottles of Jinhao ink

    From the album: First look

    Delivered from China 19 days from order date with free shipping. That's quite decent turnaround, although I really wish the seller had packed these more carefully.

  3. From the album: ~Nothing to see here, move along

    … shows only ‘Iridium’ steel-nibbed options, as of 7 Jan 2022; there are no gold-nibbed options for the item listed, even though they exist for the pen model.
