[Digital BW] Re: New Eboni inks

2003-03-25 by Vincent Orlando

Jerry, I have to agree with you about products made in China. Most 
are junk. I spend a lot of time looking at "Made in" if it is China I 
put it back and keep looking only buying if I can't find it made 
somewhere else and I really need it.
