A Waste of Money, A Disaster for the Environment!
These refills do not last. They begin to work and then stop working even though there is still ink in the barrel. Cheap quality? Old stock? Not sure why. We have not has this problem before but it happens consistently with the blue refills we purchased in June 2021.

My Zebra pen ink lasted for several years. I expect these refills will last, too.

Awesome customer service
I am not sure how to spell the sales lady name Tamara I believe but she is the most helpful and qualified person in that particular store. She is also knowledgeable and friendly. Thank you Tamara!

Ball point pin refill
Well I didn’t realize there were so many different options for a simple refill cartridge but I picked one that I thought might work and had to modify it some but it worked ok. Should have known I guess

Best pen ever
I truly believe it’s one of the most finest riding pens ever I use it every single day I now have about for them. I will never use another pen for the rest of my life. It’s an outstanding feel light and it writes very smooth.

The Zebra Steel fine point pen.
I love this pen. I have what's called "primary writer's tremor". My hand shakes when I pick up a pen (nothing else) to write. I can't use the gel pens and ink in the cheaper pens don't write peoperly. I finally found the pen I can use for all my office work.

So happy to find a blue Rollerball refill!
Thank you Staples. Bought a fancy pen with a Rollerball ink cartridge. Looked online at more than one retailer. Then had the idea to go to Staples. Don't like black ink so was thrilled to find blue ones.

Zebra refills
I like the Zenra pens but noticed that you are not carrying the blue green or red refills; but still sell the pens. Also I noticed that you no longer carry the Zebra Gel pens or those refills either.

Not as good as the original ink cartridge.
Is a poor replacement for the original cartridge. Doesn't write as smoothly as the original. Is not as full as the original. The pen was good until I ran out of ink. I wanted the black refill all they had was the blue.
