********** isn't responsive

I am nearly at the end of the dispute phase on the order I didn't receive and I can see they are going to do nothing about it. I believe I'll stick with Ebay and maybe try GinaMarie.

Another problem with Chinese vendors is their customer service is not like Amazon's. A package was misdelivered and I've never received it. I've had a claim in with the post office but still no...

I've ordered many of the Chinese dies from ********** and Amazon. The only downside is that it takes several weeks to get them. The other downside is embossing. The dies cut like a dream but they...

I've seen the Tombow refills in a 3 pack for $10. With a coupon that would be $6 so it's down to 2 apiece. That's about the best I've seen. That's why I went to an ATG gun. The cost is more up...

I'm another homemade recipe user. 2T of glycerin, 1 tsp of Orange Clean and I fill the rest of the 20 oz bottle with water. If I use it right away it does a fairly good job on Staz-on.

Good job. Steampunk is an interesting stylistic theme. My daughter is doing a costume for a convention here in town in a couple of weeks. I'm going along just for the inspiration.

I have one of these, too, and hadn't really been impressed with it. I think I'll pull out some of my background stamps and try them. Maybe I'll fall in love with them all over again.
