Satisfaction!
Perfect to write in planners. Fine tip, doesn’t bleed, doesnt smear. I use them for most of my planners. My only wish is that they had a grip for your fingers. Tends to slip on me often. Overall I love these pens! They write perfectly and stand out enough to see your special dates in your planners. And they were at my house quickly, thank you Staples delivery!!! ❤️

Just what I needed
These work well for labeling small items where there isn’t much space to write

Love them
We wanted solid markers without the indelible quality of regular Sharpies. These are thin and clear and not staining.

Sharpie pens
I like these felt pens for their darkness without bleeding through the paper so my father who is legally blind can see his appointments.

Razor Point
Caution: This is not the quick-drying permanent marker you may be looking for so be careful. I bought this thinking it was the new look of the ULTRA FINE POINT permanent marker which is item # 282566. But interestingly I found I can still use these pens to write notes cards lists and the like. This pen more closely resembles the good old fashioned Pilot brand Raz...

Nice improvement
Always loved the sharpie pens and tried them all. These are a slight bit noticeable improvement from the original thin capped version and work great.

Sharpie anti-bleed felt pens
They still bleed a little less through the paper than the regular version. But prefer it wouldn't bleed at all if that's what the label claims.

Papermate Pens Flex grip and Sharpie
Both are terrific. I had used the flex grip in past years and still have on from over 20 years ago. That one is about to go dry and that's why I ordered new ones. I had thought they had been discontinued. I would recommend them to everyone.

Work good
My only complaint is that they won’t work over color shaded areas on a piece of paper I have to use my standard fine point permanent marker for that but otherwise they perform well enough and don’t bleed through as promised.

Worked well with no smears for my ballot
I bought them to mark my ballot. As I'd hoped and one of your employees had stated they worked well. The package was a bit of a pain to open.
