I'm looking to maybe join my local university's HvZ game in a few months, and that means I'll need darts - lots of 'em. This has led me to the decidedly Chinese world of off-brand stock darts, with "Koosh" and "Voberry" being the big names. Here's what I know:

"Koosh" darts are sold on eBay by yutoys and beautifulwoman2012. They are generally considered to be cheap and effective, but often have quality control problems (thin/weak foam, heads not glued on well).

"Voberry" darts I have only seen mentioned here on NH in one place, but this blog notes that they have high-quality foam, if lower-than par accuracy thanks to the dreaded hole in the tip. The NH poster buys from this eBay seller (who has an amazing price for the quantity), while the blogger bought from Amazon, which is currently out of stock.

The most important question is: which dart/seller combination gives the best reliability and performance for the cost, and why?

It's like this one, only for homemades. Not nearly as many, but it would still be nice to weed them out or replace them.

There's no disappointment like clicking on a promising write-up in the Modifications Directory and finding a thread that is a lot of semi-detailed description interspersed with dead photo links. In a perfect world, the creators of these write-ups would renew their documentation, but since many of these are written by Nerfers who have left the hobby (such as ompa or FA24), perhaps some can be rewritten (with working photos) by other NH members. At the very least, it'd be nice to get them separated from the full write-ups.
