Nice Pen!
This is a excellent pen that compares favorably to the Sharpie S-Gel. Ink dries quickly and once dry doesn't smear under highlighter. Great value.

Love the pens…but...
My mother had a true red pen that I “lifted” from her table because it wrote so well! I bought this pack…and unfortunately…two the pens must have the ink dry out because after writing one page in my journal the ink was gone! Both were the teal color. I’m a bit disappointed and will go back to Staples and see if they can replace the dried out pens.

Fine lines
My banker had ordered the 7 m and I mentioned the fine pen. She wasn’t sure they had them. Yes they carried them.

I bought the wrong pen
I thought it would be less ball pointy and more like an inky touch to the paper. It writes well enough but I just bought the wrong one.

pens
Staples is my go to for all stationary needs. Just sorry there aren’t many left. Otherwise I always recycle my ink and get my office supply needs.

Terrible Pens
You get what you pay for so just pay for a higher priced pen or pen set. They aren't smooth and the ink flow is very inconsistent. I tried to keep using them since I bought a whole pack but i had to throw all them away. waste of money
