My FREE walnuts from Amazon after three days.

I've been lurking here for a while, but with no experience and not wanting to spend too much money or wait a long time for international shipping, I decided to buy the very cheapest $10 set on Amazon with the intention to return them if they weren't nice enough to keep.

I've been very happy with them so far

They are a little smaller than most I've seen here at 36mm wide, but they arrived with a light tan color and very clean with minimal debris in the crevices. They have been cleaned significantly, but did not seem to be excessively machine polished/dyed/altered. Almost all of the polish/shine visible has been done by me. One is a slightly smaller (14g vs 16g) but it's not noticeable when playing with them. Also, ignore the piece of cat fur I just noticed on the right side.

The listing described an included storage box and brush, but I only received a plastic bag with two walnuts. When I requested a refund/return, Amazon refunded and said I didn't have to return them.

I've been brushing with a new toothbrush because that's all I have right now, and playing with them more than I'm brushing them because I'm carrying them in my pocket during the day and hold them when I'm walking. I walk about 5 miles at a wildlife refuge a few times a week and I think that's where they will get the most use.

All in all, I'm very happy to have a functional set. I like the smaller size because anything bigger could not be concealed in my closed fist. And, of course, free walnuts are a little gift from the universe that I should appreciate, as even the $10 was more than I should probably spend on toys right now.
