So after this sitting in my toolbox for weeks, I finally got the chance to use these.
I soldered a resistor into a led circuit, and it overheated and burned out shortly afterwards. I narrowly avoided damaging the LEDS. The resistor was the correct ohm rating.
I wish I could like them. The plastic case is nice, and the included bonus parts are cool, but none of that matters if the resistors burn out. I can't even return them!
Stay away from these. They will burn out on you.
EDIT: The seller reached out to me after I wrote this review, offering my choice of a full refund or replacement. They were prompt and concise in their replies, and everything worked out in the end. I am amending my one star review to 5 stars for good customer service!

Good Resistors Bad Packaging
I got these to fix the controller ports on my dreamcast that stopped working due to blown fuses, seemed to be the cheapest set of this many resistors that would fit the bill - so I got this for the fix and to have a few extra for other projects. Happy with everything except the cheap shipping/packaging they chose - putting anything this flimsy in a bubble mailer is a recipe for something getting cracked, in this case the entire holder for all of these things - thankfully nothing inside got broken, but taking off 1 star because they could have avoided all of this by putting it in a box, or adding some padding Update: 4/9/2019 - seller quickly reached out to me and made their mistake right, updating my review to reflect perfect score as they have gone above and beyond to stand behind their product - would very much recommend this product and seller!!
