Hi All, I bought a pair of these bobbins on ebay a few weeks ago. I found them a little chunky (diameter 3/8ths inch) and somewhat longer (5.25 inches without spangle) than the other midlands bobbins that I use - they'll be fine for me for gimp though. You may need to take this into consideration if you like your bobbins to be compatible size-wise.
They were quickly despatched and very well packaged.
