    Default Chinese pen kits

    Sorry, I posted a thread on here last night or the night before that was incorrect in terms of the Forum rules and therefore, removed. Having corresponded with a Moderator, I will try again.

    I recently received an email (no idea why) from a company in China offering cheap pen kits. I have never heard of them, but I am now informed they provide a lot of kits to Australia. Anyway, they are offering them to me and you. The link is below - if you are interested go for it but let me know on here how it turns out as a matter of interest to me

    www.penkits.com.cn .

    Any website that expects me to register just to view it, isn't going to get a lot of my business.

    Actually not having any interest in making pens, they'd get none of my business any way.

    They have been around for some time now, if you want to buy large amounts you can get it from them.David

    Its Xiamen Rizeng, they have been around for a long time you are better off to deal with one of our Australian Companies that import from OS, just as cheap and less hassle

    There are plenty of purveyors of cheap pen kits around. Usually cheaply made, too.

    Now, if someone can point me to a site where I can reliably buy good quality kits at (hopefully less than) reasonable prices...

    (...I'd probably still want to make my own. Not that I do, but I'll get there. Eventually. )
    I may be weird, but I'm saving up to become eccentric.

    I have used this site a few times over the years ,but mainly for small items I use a lot of , the postage is dear ( 500 grams around $23 us ) but it does come by courier so arrives fairly quick ,usually a few days to a week . One thing I don't like is so much of their stock is sold out on the site and never seems to be replaced . So far no issues with quality as it seems comparable to most suppliers . I usually put in what I want then keep adding things till the postage changes to the next level, then back off a little to get the lowest shipping price . Just my 2 cents worth lol. cheers ~ John
    G'day all !Enjoy your stay !!!
