Brian,

"You are still buying the same shit from the same people"
"There are only a few manufacturers....."

So the same shit from different manufacturers or different shit from all manufacturers?

I think TB buy theirs from Ace Pens, therefore I am obviously using a different grade of shit. The shit that I but has not let me down, I have made 100 of the gun metal jr gents and not had one failure. Its fundamentally a good kit and it sells well and I have no problems confidently selling these pens. By contrast I have had around 10 returns in the last year from TB jr gents kits as the result of the plastic cracking and disintegrating in the cap. These are obviously low quality shit.
