Best nips for the price! I think they resharpen old ones so its like refurbished or recycled because I noticed cotton stuck on the tip of packaged ones! Used maybe? Hmm. Oh well for the price I guess that’s what you get these days! Its good practice to sanitize new stuff anyways before using it. I think the more you buy the better the deals. But so far I only bought one to try em out. Hopefully it will last for awhile. $ 4−20+ depending on specs. so far so good. I probably will be back. TBC!
