The price must switch. I got mine today for 91 cents.

These arrived today. They are really swift!  How are you liking them, Jane? We've got seven of this kind around the house now, and I just adore them. They have a slightly more pen-like feel to them (weight/heft/diameter) than the cheaper ones I've tried, and the pen clips don't break off as easily as some.

I only have the set of 3, and already I am stressing about losing them. They have such a soft, smooth touch.
What is all the velcro for that came with the set?

These arrived today. They are really swift!  I just ordered these yesterday. I have never used a stylus, I have never owned a touch thingy anything so this will be new. I want to do crossword puzzles on my Fire and I think these will make it easier. Glad to hear they are good quality. I didn't know which one to get. On the pictures they all look the same. Can't wait to get them.

It's a cable tie, for wrapping/organizing cables. I have a bunch of them already, they're very useful in general. I hate tangled cables, especially when you have half a dozen things plugged into a surge protector, or a bunch of cables in a drawer. I actually keep a roll of Velcro-branded ones on hand all the time, so I haven't tried the ones that came with the styluses. But I know about stressing over losing the styluses. I keep eyeballing the ten pack. LOL Already I am at the point where there's one in each major room, one in my purse, and now one in the day bag I use to carry the Kindle, phone, and a couple of other things just around the house! I'm working on how to attach one to my Coyl Cushion too.

Funny you should mention the ten-pack... I just ordered it. With all the touch screen gadgets and winter coming up, I think they will be very useful.

If I could just get a ten pack of the purple...  We have the three pack Jane posted, plus the four pack of pink & purple (2 each). Of them all, I like the purple best. (The pink is truly a shocking pink. It's a good choice if you need one you aren't going to lose in a purse, or one you'll spot from across the room.) For the record, they work well on the Touch too, not just on the Fire or iDevices.

I had ordered the 3 pack on the OP way back in Sept for the son's tablet. Liked them so much I have ordered another pack ($1.80 more or less?) at the begining of the month. Got them yesterday. That is a total of 4 stylists for me  Hopefully I can keep track of at least one of them! (maybe I should go order more?)

I've had a shipped notice since Dec 10 and still don't have them. I have a delivery estimate of Jan 4th - Jan 23rd. I don't know how the shipped them but I think they must be walking them here.

Stuff coming out of Hong Kong can take anywhere from two tweaks to two months in my experience. Better to pay the little bit extra for the stuff sent directly from Amazon.

I'll remember that the next time. I'm glad I'm not in a hurry to get them.

Went and looked up my order on my Amazon acct. Ordered on Oct. 27th. Est. delivery date 12/21 to 1/10. Received 12/19. Paid 97 cents, free shipping. Not bad at all. And I remember the Sept. order arriving much faster. Of course I already had one set and wasn't in a hurry to get the 2nd set, just wanted back ups because I know I will misplace them.

 Some dummy just paid $7.85 for a 3-pack.  Thanks, Jeff. A number of us in this thread have already recommended these. And unlike the cheap ones, ours arrived in a timely manner. Might want to rethink the name calling, even though I know it was unintentional and probably aimed at yourself.  (And I don't think you'll regret buying them, they work extremely well and seem to hold up for a good long time--at least, the sets I have have been great.)

I ordered three see of these because in Australia they sell for something like $30 a pack. And I already lost one from my original order. They are excellent. Not sure about the velcro though, it seems a bit random.

Please forgive me, everyone. When I read through the thread I failed to realize that the picture links, which some of you posted, were to a different 3 pack than the one posted by OP. My overall impression was that I'd just spent almost eight dollars for a one dollar product. Without realizing that it might offend anyone I posted, calling myself a dummy. Not sure about the velcro though, it seems a bit random.
The company probably just wants to introduce a relatively unknown, very handy product to potential buyers. I recently started using those Velcro cable ties on my server rack. Before my wife discovered them, I used nylon wire ties that had to be cut off with dikes when a cable was rerouted.
