JAM PAPER Standard Size Colorful Staples - Ruby Red - 5000/box

Does not seem to be as sturdy or strong with holding papers as the regular staplers.

Love these. They match our store colors so it hits really well using a red staple! They are a great color. If they were a little more neon bright it would be nice, but getting that color on these would cost way more. The quality of color is still very good for the price!

As advertised. Came with a lot of staples too, has lasted me a long time. Nice and strong, good quality. Black paint doesn't chip off or damage easily.

when stapling more than 5-6 sheets of paper they are jamming my stapler. I am frustrated with them. Cute but do not do the job that I need them to do without stapling both back and front.

The worst thing about these is that they are very flimsy and jam up the stapler a lot. I have a very sturdy stapler that I've never had issues with, but it does not process these little staples very well. They are thinner than any staples I have ever seen. Usually, 2-3 staples try to push through the machine at a time, which, of course, creates a big mess. When I do succeed in getting only one staple to process through the machine at a time, it usually just bounces off of the paper, crushing in on itself. They are very thin, and won't ever punch through more than three pages at a time. I tried piercing four pages, and I was never successful. When I went down to three pages, I was able to get through perhaps 20% of the time, with the unsuccessful times being a result of either a staple jam or a crushed staple not piercing the paper. Upon arrival, these appeared to be intact in their box-long staple columns. But, as soon as I pulled a column out of the box, it crumbled in my hand into 2-3 centimeter long blocks of staples. Having little blocks instead of long columns definitely compounds the staple-jam issues, as the beginning and end of each block is almost always an immediate jam. These are a very beautiful dark purple color. They are only painted one side, though, not completely colored. When you actually succeed in stapling one of these into a piece of paper, the corners where the staple bends over serve as a breaking-point where the paint starts to chip off. Every time, you will see the silver of the underneath-coloring shining through at the corners, and it will eventually chip off most of the staple, leaving just a speckling of purple paint left. You can also see the silver if you look at the staple from the side, as the paint is only on the direct top of the staple. Thus, you will not want to use this on anything that needs to look nice, because it does not look nice as purple, and it does not look nice as silver.

Love em!!! Maybe a little purplish. But that's ok.

Works as expected

So cute. You will always know if someone has used your stapler… They are so nice, and did I say Pink.
