I ordered two different lanyards as gifts. They shipped and arrived quickly. The packaging and delivery were very nice, with tissue paper. This black beaded one wears nicely with many different outfits (gave to a coworker). If you're one who likes to carry multiple things attached to your badge (RSA token, lock/key, etc.), the ring that attaches the id holder to the beads will not be strong enough - the only down-side.
