I have been wearing these panties for a long time, and always loved them. They are the most comfortable undies I've ever had, but I now refuse to buy them due to poor quality.  The last 3 or 4 packages of these panties that I have purchased (from Walmart) have all had problems with the stitching around the elastic coming unraveled, and breakage of the elastic, all within just a few washings. A couple pairs I only wore twice before they came apart.  I contacted Hanes with my complaint, and they sent me 2 replacement packages. Those also fell apart in a short period of time.  It's a shame, because I really love the feel and fit of these panties, but I just won't keep giving my money to a company that has such poor quality. I know they are inexpensive, but I don't feel that is a justification for having to buy new underwear every couple of months.
