Before buying this product I read so many reviews where people wrote that pencils were broken, missing, used, falling out of the box or otherwise in bad shape. This is why I find it very important to write a review myself after my package has now arrived and I had a chance to look at and try out my new pencils. I have bought the 100 different colors box. This box does not contain any metallics, like gold or silver. It is clearly stated however, I feel like saying it again as some people still seem to expect these colors to be present.I received a perfectly fine box with all pencils present and intact. To me it does not seem as if the box was opened or used before. The box was sealed with a stripe of tape, so no pencils would fall out either.I have started coloring with the pencils and they perform as expected, i.e. they put color on a paper. Of course, these are not 'high end' pencils, but you are not paying for that, so this should be obvious.I am a happy customer with a big box of pencils.
