Long story short, a parent of a friend of mine is actually an author and she used this for binding her written works. Lately, she has not written anything and isn't passionate about writing anymore. Thus, she has asked his son to sell it and it landed straight up here. It is in perfect condition and it fully functional. Hope you get it for yourself and enjoy seamless stapling.✌️ Also, you can staple notebooks and torn books with this❤️.
