Disappointing even at low price point.

This was not a product I needed, or even one I wanted really badly. It was the amazon equivalent of the candy shelf in the grocery store check-out line. An impulse buy, in which you reason "This is probably junk, but there is a slight chance it might not be, and since it costs almost nothing, what do I have to lose?" Furthermore, I assumed that the little pencil sharpener built into it would be junk, and if that was its only flaw I wouldn't have held it against it. As for the rest, what could go wrong? If all it was was a designated spot for my tape measure and marking tools, I would have given it four or five stars, given what it cost. I applied my Harbor Freight rule; if it has no moving parts, its...probably...fine. Turns out I was wrong. The pegs that you insert into the pegboard were all different sizes, and two of them wouldn't fit. I could spend 15 minutes with a file and get it to fit, sure, but that's not the point. If this product was being sold for $30, but with a lifetime, no questions asked guarantee, I wouldn't have bought it because I don't value what it sets out to be highly enough. Maybe you do, in which case spending 15 minutes filing the pegs would be worth it for you. The question I thought I was gambling $7 on was "Will this be a useful way to store my pencils and tape measure?", not "Will this physically hang on a pegboard?" For me, life is to short to spend any of it screwing around trying to whittle this thing into something that MIGHT be a useful pencil holder.
