Review on ๐ŸŽƒ Halloween Plastic Pumpkin Supplies - URATOT by Jason Sisawang

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Strong smell of plastic - needs airing, samples are grouped in one bag. Overall good value for money.

We bought these bags as a souvenir for our family on a scavenger hunt in the garden. The zip ties felt cheap like they didn't have a lot of wire, but to my surprise they twisted and held up very well, plus they didn't have the pointy ends of regular zip ties, which is an added bonus for young kids. My guess is that the zip ties are most likely disposable/locked in as they are very similar to the zip ties I've seen on cables that never want to be re-twisted. So not sure if they allow re-opening and closing of bags (and if so, not sure how often). But we didn't care. The plastic bags were well packed in two sets of 60, although one of the two inner packages contained several bags with a folded and crumpled corner, which did not affect usability. the bags are filled in such a way that the motifs are not randomly placed in the pack, but sorted into groups (e.g. x of motif 1, then x of motif 2 etc. in a stack). So if you want to mix bags but don't plan on using all the bags at once, you'll need to split the styles into separate batches and take turns using the bags from each batch. My only criticism is the pumpkin bags. They had a noticeable plastic/ink smell when I opened their bag. They sat here in an Amazon mailer for over a week, then there was a product bag in it, and then in the product bag there were two packs of 60 bags and two packs of zip ties (one pack of each color), all in different packs. sealed plastic inner bags). The smell seemed to dissipate fairly quickly (minutes/hour+) but if we had known we would have opened the packaging and put it on "air" a few days ago before attempting to refill it. For this reason I would recommend ordering a few days in advance and opening the package early. Overall good value for money. I hope the above tips are helpful too.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Good but not great
