I think it is Qualtex's way of alowing more bad balloons to pass..... I used to have about 3-4 "BAD" ballons per 144 bag and I still have the same number since they have switched. Also I am upset at their buying out BSA and discontinuing their line. It make you wonder if they buy out the rest what's to keep them from lowering their quality even more. (The balloons these past few months have seemed thinner to me and makes twisting in the heat more difficult and less durable to the child) If they want they should make a thinner run (at a lower cost) and have the thicker ones. I fogot who used to do the ballons in the 3 thicknesses. I always find it disterbing when you have to depend on the work of others (Qualtex) in order for your work to stand up. Last but not least, I have sources from working at a magic shop a few years back for the contact juggling spheres. I uses them myself anyone who might be interested E-mail me and I'll see if there is enough call for me to order some they should run about $15 plus shipping or if your interested in more I'll see what i can work on the price.
