Cosco 2000 Plus Self-Inking Type Size 1 Micro Message Dater (011090)

I read all the reviews and I read that you get your hands all dirty with ink but that has not been the case with me. I watched the video on how to move the spindles and it has worked great for me. Thanks.

Work well. You need a light touch when changing the date word wheels or you will get ink all over your fingers but after a few changes you’ll get the hang of it. Ink does smear on shiny/glossy paper works best on cardboard regular paper. For shiny paper I stamped on a file folder sticker it works.

I use this stamp daily to mark when I send emails, receive mail or invoices. Lots of choices to choose from. Handy and sturdy item.

Does the job, for what it is

This ink stamp is perfect for sending out my sales on Ebay and Amazon. Just adjust the ink stamp to "shipped" and the exact Month, day and year I shipped the product I sold. I also keep a copy so I can file all my copies of the 'pack slips' in date order for accounting purposes. I use the other choice messages as well, very nice, very convenient to stamp my messages and have the current date I processed that document.

I usually buy this in an office supply store and pay more. This item is one of the most versatile stamps you can buy and at a great price! New in packaging and quickly arrived.

It's great in theory, and pretty nice outside the cloud of thought in reality, stamping very nicely, and being self-inking saving the struggle of trying to use those pesky and difficult ink pads (EYUGH!), but there are some slight issues to be addressed for sure. Changing the information on the stamp including the date and year REQUIRES ROLLING THEM TO THE TOP OF THE MACHINE AS OPPOSED TO THE EXPOSED BOTTOM WHERE YOU MAY THINK THEY WOULD NEED TO BE TO DO THEIR JOB. I type that in all caps not because I'm yelling, though rest assured I am yelling every word of this out loud as I type it. The library is such a nice place to grab a book or use one of their Internet installed computers! Back to the stamp. If you don't roll the wheels right (another challenge that I might challenge the product's manufacturer to fix: rolling the wheels with ease that doesn't involve completely taking The Rolling Stone's song to heart and painting it black) you will end up with the wrong words and/or date on your whatever-it-is-you're-stamping. I mean, how can you finalize death certificates if you're putting EMAILED Jul 29 2012 when you're clearly looking for DELIVERED Jan 14 2019? It would not only be a major embarassment for your company, be it a large death-processing LLC or a small-time basement-operated nightmare run by John Wayne Gacy, but also for your family because your parents will have to once again come to terms with the fact that their actions caused you to be brought into this world, and we wouldn't want to do that to them, right? But aside from those things, and now the fact that my inked up fingertips habe started to cover the letyers om the kaybkrd nd I cannit see thw leyyers, I emjuyed thus peofuct.

It’s small and nifty. It gets the job done as required. Fits right inside my signature 😀
