So my sister got a bunch of these retractable erasers for her classroom. Finding refills for the erasers, however, is turning out to be a PAIN (which is especially frustrating since it says right on the package "REFILLABLE")!

Here's what she has that she needs refills for: www.amazon.com/Dotted-Retractable-Stick-Eraser-Set/dp/B019D5NNIS/

The erasers on these are about the size of a good thick piece of chalk. These are NOT the thin Pentel type erasers. From my sister's description

"About 1 cm in diameter, about 10 cm long"

She's tried contacting the company (Bazic) through their official website and their response to her (and I'm not kidding) was "We don't carry the refills, try Amazon" which she TRIED!

All she needs are refills for these, she doesn't want to have to buy new holders and everything. I haven't been able to find anything in the couple hours that I've been at work.

Any google-fu masters out there willing to help search?

Maria Hill: ...Then aliens invaded New York and were beaten back, by among others, a giant green monster, a costumed hero from the 40's.... and a god.

Grant Ward: I don't think Thor is technically a god.

Maria Hill: Well...you haven't been near his arms.

(edit) probably too thin. Though Staedtler does seem to have other options.

Not yet. Still searching

They don't have it on eBay. If it's not on eBay, it doesn't exist.

The only other suggestion I have is to take a block eraser, an xacto knife and carve... Nah, too much work.

On the other hand, there are places like this:

You'd probably have to find out if this is indeed for 24 of 'em, but if it is, it brings the price point down to just over a dollar...

ayanami: Also, yes, Iain deserves constant praise, always! And for the Doctor in particular. Chilling role! Nov 24, 2024 23:07:48 GMT

Jemma Simmons: Right? I always think the same thing when I see a movie that was adapted from source material but has been changed so much that it's unrecognizable. Nov 24, 2024 23:08:46 GMT

ayanami: I gotta admit that "World War Z" is an incredibly cool name, but still, seems a bit pricey if you're just gonna ignore the whole rest of the novel.

Nov 24, 2024 23:10:42 GMT

Jemma Simmons: Exactly!

Nov 24, 2024 23:11:32 GMT

ayanami: The book sounds really cool btw. It's about one guy 10 years after the zombie outbreak gathering different perspectives from a bunch of survivors, so you have like a dozen different stories/settings in the novel. Plus, the author is actually Mel Brooks'... Nov 24, 2024 23:12:58 GMT

ayanami: ...son and apparently there's an audio book version of the novel featuring a bunch of Hollywood talents! (Gotta have connections in life!

) Nov 24, 2024 23:13:41 GMT

Jemma Simmons: What?! That's wild! I'll have to check into it! Nov 24, 2024 23:14:18 GMT

Jemma Simmons: Sounds way more interesting than the movie, anyway! Nov 24, 2024 23:14:32 GMT

Jemma Simmons: Oh, just FYI, next weekend is a holiday weekend here, so I won't be able to be around.

Nov 24, 2024 23:15:41 GMT

ayanami: Absolutely! Which makes it even more bewildering that they went with such a lame clichéd Hollywood story instead. Which, btw, is actually getting a sequel next year. Who'd have thunk it?! Nov 24, 2024 23:17:08 GMT

ayanami: Ah, alright, thanks for the heads up. Nov 24, 2024 23:18:07 GMT

Jemma Simmons: Yeah, that's something I've noticed lately too. Why the sudden need for sequels for 20-30 year old movies? Most of the time they're crap and I'd definitely rather see new material. Nov 24, 2024 23:20:11 GMT

ayanami: I think I'm gotta call it a night now, though. I've got kind of an early morning coming up tomorrow and it's getting late over here. Nov 24, 2024 23:20:18 GMT

Jemma Simmons: Alrighty! You have a good couple of weeks then!

I'll be spending next weekend with some family I like and trying to avoid any remotely controversial conversations with others that I spend the rest of the year avoiding

ayanami: Tbf, World War Z is "only" from 2013, but yeah, I get your drift. Answer: Hollywood producers are all a bunch of chicken sh*ts, who only want to invest money into stuff with a recognisable name and a good track record, so only sequels, prequels and reboots Nov 24, 2024 23:22:41 GMT

ayanami: From now until eternity!
