Yea I hear you, but around here there aren't any stores that sell plugs and such. I haven't been too bothered with it since I've only needed a pair or two per size since I just wanted to keep stretching up. I'll be stayin at 3/4 for a while so I'll be buyin online from now on.

So I already have to lay these plugs to rest. They slipped out of my hand while I was cleanin em and they shattered into a million pieces...guess that's what I get for buying em from Spencers lol

Yea...I'm not that surprised though. It turns out after looking at em they were probably plexiglass or fiberglass that had been intentionally cracked then glued back together lol. They cracked right where you can see the cracks in the picture and fit perfectly back together. Unfortunately though I can't just glue em back together cause some of the bits were missing and one of the plugs shattered into more pieces. Guess you get what you pay for, eh?

Oh, wow! I thought maybe it was just because of their size: more surface area so more to break if that makes any sense. I drop my glass plugs all the time and nothing ever happens to them.
It's weird, Spencer/Hot Topic/etc. are actually pretty expensive (or at least the same price as some of the places I shop online) but the quality is SO terrible! I'd rather spend the same amount/a tiny bit more for something good.

Yea they were definitely pretty low quality. I was able to put them together like a puzzle piece, right where the cracks were before they shattered. I'll never be buying another pair of plugs from spencers or hot topic again, unless I'm getting KAOS ear skins or liquid glass plugs, which I don't think I'll be able to do cause if I remember right Liquid doesn't make plugs this big.
