After seeing so many reviews here mentioning the bad smell from their package of loom bands, I just wanted to mention that the package I received had NO BAD SMELLS at all. I ordered this package from ToysNGamesEtc in November, and liked them so much that I ordered from them again in December. Both orders arrived before Christmas. BTW, the product comes with S clips. I ended up purchasing a separate package of clips with my first order because this was not mentioned in the product description. No biggie, they'll all be put to good use. There's no such thing as too many clips, especially when you make a lot of smaller items like rings.
The colors on these bands are just as pictured in the product photo and in some ways look even better than the bands that came with the original Rainbow Loom kit. However I did notice that these bands feel a little thinner and they are much more stretchy than the original bands; they're so stretchy that you may even feel that the bands might break since they become thinner as you stretch them. But no need to worry. We made several bracelets that required quite a bit of stretching and nothing broke. So far we have run into just one pink band that seemed a little thinner than the rest and might break while doing the looping part of the bracelet (after placing all the bands and turning the loom around), so we just carefully pulled that band out and replaced it with another one and continued on to complete the bracelet. I really wouldn't make a big deal out of a few broken bands in this set because I still come out ahead due to the bargain price it is offered here; it is still more economical than buying smaller packages elsewhere. Right now it comes out to 2.50 per pack of 600 bands! Excellent value indeed. This would cost more elsewhere.
I also wanted to point out that when I'm comparing these bands to the bands that come with the Rainbow Loom kit, I'm talking about the "original" kit from Choon's Design and not any of the counterfeit or knock off kits. After my 8 yr old daughter opened her Christmas present, I compared her loom to the pictures on the Rainbow Loom company website (you can Google search for it) with tips for identifying the original product (or rather, how to spot counterfeit looms) and confirmed that the one I got is an original. I bought my Rainbow Loom from Michael's. I'm so glad I had the foresight to purchase extra refill bands because she went bonkers with the Rainbow Loom and went through all 600 bands that came with the kit in just a couple of days.
Jan 10, 2014 update:
I am so pleased with this purchase and my daughter couldn't be happier. I just noticed the price dropped to 15.95 (which comes to 2 bucks per pack of 600 bands). I could not pass this up and just placed my 3rd order for this set of 4800 loom bands. Great product and can never have too many bands. We have no problems making the more advanced style bracelets with them.
I just want to mention again that the bands I received in my previous 2 orders did not smell bad at all, certainly not as bad as some other reviewers have mentioned. Mine do not smell any worse than regular office supply type rubber bands. I think these people may have purchased their set from a different seller whose product is not the same as the one I received from ToysNGamesEtc.

Arrived exactly as pictured. Vibrant colors. Clips included. Bands are softer and more stretchy than the Rainbow Loom brand. My 7 year old was very happy!
