## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Super easy to order office supplies.  :  )
*by S***A on July 24, 2024*

We use these office supplies for a group of 80.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ These pens are great, though they need to update the photo
*by T***T on July 29, 2014*

These pens are great, though they need to update the photo, since it doesn't quite match.However, I didn't get these pens because they look cool. I got them because they write and draw well without gumming up blobs of ink or skipping, etc. I'm an industrial designer, so I write with block lettering (lots of short strokes) and not cursive, and most ball-point pens don't deliver consistent ink to the page with this type of writing. Most ball-point pens also tend to gather up blobs of ink when drawing longer lines (as with sketching) and will often dump ink blobs on the page unexpectedly. These pens write and draw very smoothly, and are currently my favorite ball-point pens.

### ⭐⭐⭐ My Favorite Pens with a concern
*by L***B on November 21, 2022*

I was overjoyed to find Amazon carries these pens. They are so hard to find and I’ve used them for years. I used to buy them at Staples. But the ink is not that strong - peters out - so I don’t know if they’ve been sitting on the shelf for years or what. I’m not sure what the problem is.
