    Today I shared with a friend Steve Carroll that I order from you because you have a good selection, you provide instructions with each pen. Quick and easy ordering, good selection & good customer service.

    I was very disappointed in the 50-pen blank grab bag I received. Instead of 50 different pen blanks as shown in your description, I got 5 each of 10 different blanks. Very deceptive advertising. NOT what I wanted.

    I love that I could see the wood and the kit so I could get a rough idea of what the pen could look like. I know wood grain would be different, but it was helpful to get an idea if the olive wood would work with the honeycomb kit.

    I have used Pen State for years and have always been happy with the quality of the products. I just wish the shipping were faster. Sometimes I have to order Bolt Action Pen State pens from Craft Supplies USA just to get them faster to make pens for upcoming shows.
