Review on 🎁 Silver Polka Dot Party Gift Bags - Small Size - 12 Pieces - Fun Express Party Supplies - Paper Gift Bags with Handles by Wendy Rodriguez

The beauty of the bag lies in its simplicity - all you have to do is open it and put items inside to fulfill its main purpose as a container. Unfortunately, most of the bags I've resuscitated in this order have failed completely in this regard. Judging by all the positive reviews, I've come across a defective batch. Out of the dozen I received, only 3 were usable (meaning I could actually open them and put items inside without damaging the bag itself). The problem, as mentioned in several reviews, is the glue used to seal the bottom of the bags. The impression was that it was either applied too liberally or not dried properly during the manufacturing and packaging process. The 8 bags I received were glued together in pairs and I tried for a long time to slowly separate the bags. Spending the better part of half an hour on this for just 3 pairs was a disappointment and a waste of time - I could have just given up, made a kettle of tea and used the stuck bags as rather large but serviceable paper coasters. There were also 2 bags with small imperfections - one had traces of rust and the other had some dirt (the other 10 had no such stains). These are attractive bags at an attractive price and if I had been lucky I would have left a more positive review. However, I had too many issues with my particular batch and couldn't justify more than 1 star. I hope you, my fellow customer, have a much better experience.
