Only ONE out of the five dice are properly balanced. Test before you use!
Your browser does not support HTML5 video. You get what you pay for. I did a float test on these 30-sided dice before using them because when I roll dice, I expect the result to be random. Only ONE out of the five dice are properly balanced. The other four roll to the SAME NUMBER EVERY TIME on a float test. The float test is demonstrated and results shown in the attached video.If you'd like to perform your own float test to see if your dice are balanced properly:1) Fill 3/4 of an average-size drinking cup with water and microwave it. Turn it off just when the water is coming to a boil.2) Begin pouring (not sprinkling) table salt into the water while stirring it, allowing the salt to dissolve in the water. (These dice are relatively heavy so you may have to add a good deal of salt to sufficiently alter the buoyancy.)3) Allow the water to cool to room temperature. (Never place plastic dice in hot water!)4) Place a single die into the salt water. If you added enough salt, the die should not sink to the bottom. If it does, repeat steps 1-4 (adding more salt to the same cup of water) until the die no longer sinks.5) Use a utensil to push the die underwater and agitate it a few times, making sure any air bubbles attached to the die are knocked off.6) Stop agitating the die and allow it to float. If the die is properly balanced, it will roll smoothly (without bobbing back and forth) and once it stops, it will never favor the same number or group of contiguous numbers. If the die bobs around and always comes to rest with the same number(s) facing up, it is improperly balanced and will not produce random results.If you roll an unbalanced die on a hard surface a few times, you probably won't notice the issue right away unless that die is absurdly unbalanced. However, if you roll it dozens of times and record the number it lands on each time, it won't take long to see that the number it favors is coming up a lot more often than any other numbers. I'm serious about my randomness and if you're purchasing a pack of 30-sided dice, I'm going to assume you are too. Test them. I definitely won't be getting any more of these.

Countdown & random colors are cons for me
I wish they weren't countdown dice and I wish the cord were not random (I rest wanted purple but no luck, instead got a muddy pee color). But for the price, these filled my need for some d30 (playing buttonmen).

Spindown dice in ugly colors
These are spindown dice, so buyer beware. They are not perfectly balanced, but roll well enough in a dice roller. The colors are not vibrant, but dark, muted, and ugly. But if you need cheap d30s for your Lamentations of the Flame Princess Mushroom Man, this is a cheap way to go!

Good dice, good price, reads nice!
These dice are well-made (no sketchy printing or number fill-in), roll well (and randomly), and are machined smoothly on the points (no odd skitter or stops). Very nice!

Pretty okay
VERY pretty. My colors were pretty good. They roll very inconsistently, and they easily change numbers with the tiniest movement from the table. Good for the price though.

Pleasant surprise.
The colors are different from what I was expecting but these are great. The ones I got are probably less common to come across than the ones I was expecting anyway. You can’t have enough dice

Good for what they are.
I got these for my players because this is how I handle inspiration. They're nice but quite rounded which isn't always bad.

Great dice, well balanced, roll great
Great dice, roll great, well balanced dice. Even though not name brand still worth the value.
