The 4 colors Iconic ballpen
I have seen this pen around in offices since I was a kid in the good old days of the 80's. This pen is the best 4 color ball pen EVER. Period! It writes super smooth, it looks great and it lasts very long. Also the large "MADE IN FRANCE" print on the side adds a lot of aura to the pen.

Cheap!
I bought these, but returned them the next day. Very cheap and there should be some kind of rubber grip on the pen instead of slippery plastic. I do not recommend.

Love these pens!
I love that I have 4 colors with me at all times and they write great! No ink accumulating at the tip like some pens. Just clean, smooth writing!

Bic 4Color
I would give this product less than 1 star if I could. I am a nurse and use the colors to record different aspects of patient care. After about a week the pen began to bleed. I thought it was a fluke. So, I used another and the same thing happened. This used to be a great pen. I do not know if the company is using cheaper products or what. DO NOT BUY!!!

Great for Clinicals
I'm a nursing student. Another student passed down the idea to use these pens in Clinicals because we could write report in one color, circle labs and diagnostics in red and other important information we had to do or tell doctor in green. We of course are not going to bog down our already full pockets with several colored pens, so these pens are perfect. They write wel...

Great organization tool
This multi-colored pen is proving to be a great instrument for getting organized. My co-workers realize how much more organized I have become so they too use this pen as a means to label and prioritize their notes.

The pen for all reasons
The best pen for taking notes which require special emphases in several areas. It is easy to switch the colors and compact. I dont have to carry an additional set of colored pencils. I used this pen 33 years ago working as a staff nurse on different shifts. The blue / black were used on day shift. The green was evening shift and the red was for nights. I was thrilled to...

Great pen
I was hoping to be able to buy just one pen and only found the 3 pack. That's the only reason I gave it a 4. I love the pen! It writes smoothly, just like I like. And because I had three, I shared one with a friend. Highly recommend it.

handy dandy pen
this is a life saver in our household. we have the giant "master planner" calender on the fridge door.(yes we do use our phones but everyone checks the calender to see when,who and where we are to go!
use the red for bills due,green for birthdays etc,, black for work,school and sports schedules,and blue for odd appointments ie service calls,repairs etc. very handy.....

bic 4 color retractable ballpoint pen
I like the idea that it has 4 colors in one - you don't have to carry 4 different pens, won't leak easy to use. Adds color to your work. They are good for taking notes and changing colors for important ides and you don't have to highlight things are you are taking notes for. They write clear, easy to handle. One of my sons is left handed and they make his penmanship eas...

Convenient for the Price
Unfortunately, it is the only option at my local Staples store with multiple colors in a single pen. I got 3 pens for around $7-$8. Unfortunately, the ink on the first pen seems like it won't take too long to run out. The plastic also feels cheap. If you are always using it on a very long paced and hectic job, you might want to make sure the clip or pen doesn't break.

Fun addition to workshop
Participants at a training workshop enjoyed these pens because they were useful in writing points in various colors. Not having to switch out 4 different pen colors saved time and made it easier for them to do the work. They also found the pens to be a fun item, reminiscent of past times.

BIC ® 4-Color Retractable Ballpoint Pen,
I have been the team statistician for our local high school football team for the past 35 years. I use this pen on the sidelines of the football games when writing the play by play statistics. I will change colors for each team and this makes it so easy when I total the stats. Our school colors are Green & Gold so I always use the Green Ink for our stats and then blue o...

BIC 4-Color Fine Point 3-Pack Needed
4-Color BIC ballpoint pens and 4-Color refills are hard to find at most any stationary stores and at Staples stores
Store displays should have a specific section for pens that offer multiple ink colors.
What's missing from the BIC display selection is a BIC 4-Color 3-Pack with fine points AND refills packs with fine points.
Both are necessary for accounting ledger w...

Not the best
The idea of this pen is cool for those who like to take notes in school and might want to switch colors real quick to make a "special note" of something, but these pens done have a strong tip and the tips are kinda loose in the barrel so when you write the tip of the pen moves around. Also the ink comes out kinda thick with a clear line in the middle of it (just a poorl...
