This tag works well. Yes, it has begun to show wear after a couple weeks, but what low-priced tag doesn't when it is constantly rubbing against the other tags? I leave the most important side facing outwards and that side has almost no wear. If you use this as a standalone tag it will be fine. For the very low price I am pleased with the engraving, it's readable, which is the most important thing. At this price, I can always order more than one, or it's not a big deal to change my info and order a new one if I ever need to.
