Okay, so I figured that I could write a review of my current Amazon.com orders. I have not received any yet but i can tell you about my order up to this point. I am also going to review all the products in my order once I receive them.
Let me tell you about my first order. I am a pen FREAK!!! I don't ever get to buy nice pens during the rest of the year so since we have some extra money from taxes I decided to place a pen order. My first order was placed on February 11th 2014 and I ordered the following - Paper Mate Flair Point - Guard Porous Point Pens - 12 colored pens, Sharpie Pen Fine Point Pen - 6 colored pens, Uni-ball Vision, Stick Needle, Fine Point Roller ball Pens - 8 Colored Ink Pens, 8 packs of Paper Mate InkJoy 100 Stick Medium Point Advanced Ink Pens - 8 Colored Ink Pens, 3 packs of BIC Round Stic Grip Ball Point Pen - Purple Ink, Medium, Dozen Pack Pens, Paper Mate Liquid Flair Medium Tip Felt Porous Pens - 8 Colored Pens, Sharpie Fine Point Pen - Assorted Colors 12 Pack, Sharpie Permanent Markers, Assorted Ink, Fine Point 8 Pack + Free 8 Pack. The reason I bought 8 packs of the Paper Mate InkJoy was because they were under $2 a pack and you just couldn't beat that! Now after the fact I've done some reading up on them and I'm worried that I might have bought a bunch of crap pens. Most of the reviews are not too good.
Now, after I placed my order it got separated into 3 separate orders / shipments, I imagine because they must be coming from different places. Anyways the first order was marked as shipped the night of the 11th, the second part was marked as preparing to ship that same night but didn't actually ship until yesterday the 13th, and the third part of my order from the 11th still has not shipped but last night it did get changed from "not yet shipped" to "preparing for shipment." Oh, I almost forgot to mention that the second part of the order that just shipped yesterday is supposed to be delivered today already! It was shipped from right here in New York so it only needed a day I guess.
Now on to my second order that I placed yesterday the 13th. The order includes - Mr. Sketch Scented Water Color Markers - 18 Color Set, 2 sets of Darice 68-Piece Art Set, Paper Mate Flair Porous Point Pens, Ultra Fine Point - Assorted Ink 8 Pack, Pilot Precise V5 Stick Rolling Ball Pens, Extra Fine Point - 7 Pack Pouch Assorted Color Ink, and 2 packs of Paper Mate InkJoy 300 RT Retractable Medium Point Ball Point Pens - Assorted Color 8 Pack. I purchased the Mr. Sketch and art kits for my kids because they LOVE to color and draw. My son had one of there sets last year that he got for Christmas and he absolutely loved it and thought it was the coolest thing ever to have everything in its own case. This shipment has been broken into two orders / deliveries, one is marked as "not yet shipped" and the other is marked as "preparing for shipment." Every single part of both orders say that they will be delivered by Monday February 24th, that's like a week and a half away so I would hope they would be delivered by then!
So I should let you know that Amazon uses numerous shipping methods. My first shipment that was marked shipped on the 11th was sent FedEx smartpost and says that my scheduled delivery day is the 19th even though its in PA right now and should only take a day to get here. The second shipment that was shipped yesterday and is already supposed to be delivered today was sent UPS and for some reason was sent UPS 2nd Day Air even though it came from right here in New York. So I'm really interested to see how the other shipments are sent.
I guess that's it for now, now to just wait for more to ship and for them to start showing up!
