Cost effective and as good as the other name you're used to buying
Just as good, maybe slightly softer tip/thicker line.

BETTER
Some of our employees like the Bic Fine Point better than the Sharpie.

Better than "the other brand"!
I'd been using "the other brand" for years for my boxed orders, and after a short time, the tip would wear down. The BIC Permanent Marker tip holds up much better, staying consistent. I'm very happy with these.

Thick black ink
A wonderfully thick black ink. The rubber grip makes these markers easy to handle.

Great in our Shop
We are using these in our shop to mark steel to be cut. They are working great. Better than the Sharpies we were using.

Bought these markers to use on my food labels and they smear before they dry. they also do have issues with rubbing off or fading. I keep finding labels where it looks like the top layer of ink has been rubbed off, but a trace of the writing is still there (like some of the ink soaks into the label and the rest wipes away)

Not the Same Marker
We have been using the Bic Permanent Marker for years in our company out in the plant until they changed it to the Bic Intensity Permanent Marker. It is no longer worth the money they are half dried out and don't last. I don't know what they changed but it was not a good one. We have changed over to the Quill Permanent Marker because it holds up better and last longer.

I would definitely buy these markers again.
These markers write smooth and didn't smear as much as my sharpies. I'd recommend
