19 cents per pen... nineteen cents! 19 cents for 1-2 weeks of vigorous writing! These pens far exceeded my expectations - unlike pens of similar style, these will release a steady stream of thin ink that dries within 5 seconds. Once the ink has dried, you should have no problems with smearing or staining (unless the surface on which you are writing happens to get wet). I have noticed no problems with this pen's ink bleeding through to other pages. They do not behave like similary priced "cheap generic pens" in any way. If you asked someone to participate in a blind study of pens, I am sure that these Paper Mate pens would come out on top. After you have finished writing, and decide to put the caps back on, they actually stay in place - NO MORE LOSING MY PEN CAPS! A box of 12 of these pens will certainly last you quite some time. As long as you put the pen caps back on after you are done writing, the pen ink will not harden and clog the tip. If you do happen to forget to put the cap back on, a quick tip to make the ink flow again is to heat up the pen tip with a lighter for about 2 seconds (just try not the melt the plastic while you're at it). I would recommend this product to anyone who enjoys buying outstanding merchandise for rock-bottom prices. Paper Mate, please do us all a favor and DON'T CHANGE A SINGLE THING! The only way these pens could possibly be improved is if they were handed out for free, but with a price like this, that is pretty much already the case.

This was a perfect set of basic pens for my 7th Grader. There is so much LESS required in terms of pencils and penmanship for modern children who are typing and printing out their school work. No need for expensive pens and these are thin, easy for smaller hands, and are the universally accepted Black Ink for all school projects. They write smoothly and are a medium point, so they're perfect for younger students who are just getting used to writing and doing work in permanent ink. These are extremely budget-friendly and perform as well as some of the pens that have fancier shells, but the same "insides". I love a good pen. But you really don't need a fancy pen for most things and especially for older kids in school these days. They just need something that's standard, easy to write with, and acceptable color. These pens are it. No cons, just grab a set for your students or office and you've covered the bases!

I can't truly explain why, but these are my favorite pens ever. The way the write? The ink? I love it all. Just, love these, you should try them!

This pen is comparable to the glide and performance of the Zebra pen. Yet, it is exponentially cheaper. As an artist, I feel compelled to express my enthusiasm of being able to find an affordable pen that shades wonderfully. I would 10/10 recommend this pen to any artist or person who wants more bang for their buck. Thanks.

I was given one of these pens at work for a project that required a lot of hand written notes. For roughly 4 weeks I used the pen to write 7-10 pages full on a large legal pad 5 days a week. After two and a half legal pads chocked full to the brim with notes it was still going. I've been using the same pen for 2 months and it's still writes as smooth as the first day. Normally I can use a pen in less than 2-3 weeks. I was so impressed I went searching for more, I was pleasantly surprised by the price. It's also a very comfortable design to hold for long periods. Will definitely continue to buy.

I’m sure the pens are good but it did not come in its org box? Just a bunch of pens in an envelope?
