Has anyone had any luck harvesting ducks with the "hot buy" mallard decoys?

Luck as in if they pull birds or luck as in holding up?

I have 4 dozen of them and they are great decoys. They held up great.
As far as for pulling birds they work great as well.
Since they are a bit smaller than standard decoys I can fit more in the bags and boat.

Yes, I have had the luck of getting them, using them to pull birds and the paint is holding great, of course, luck wasn't involved in the last part. I like the variety they add to my spread. The cost is just a nice bonus!

I got a dozen this past spring for an AWSOME price on ebay. I havn't had the privlage of hunting over them yet, but I can't wait to do so. I noticed a little bit of paint peeling on the tail curls... Is this normal? I don't mind it now, but would hate to see them go bad about the middle of season and have to wait for the replacements.
