Excellent pens--last forever!
By A friend of Carly and Willow
from Mullica Hill
About Me Quality Oriented
Comments about BIC� Velocity� Gel Retractable Pens; Black:
These are excellent pens and while nothing lasts forever, it seems like I do get good mileage out of each one. Keep in mind that these are gel pens--so, they won't run as long as a ball point pen. They do not dry out. Each pen tip is dipped in wax (or plastic??) and this has to be removed before it is used the first time. This isn't noticeable until you go to write something, and then you think, "What the heck, is something wrong?" Nothing is wrong, you just need to remove the plastic/wax tip and write on!! Ink does not smear--dries fast. I have used the bold as well as the 0.7, and I find 0.7 is my personal preference. I purchased these with other products at the end of the month--so, delivery was free.

Pen skips
By Consult
from Laurel, MD
Every pen in this box has skipped when I used it. I can't write a single letter without it skipping. Will not purchase again
Great flowing Pen w/o the [*]marks!

I wish they came with refills and could dry a bit quicker but the smooth function of the tip makes every word look almost as artistic as calligraphy.
Great pen...please keep carring them..

This pen was just what I needed for the job. I have used it for a few years now. Its great for writing in small spaces. Glides easy and handles well.
I wouldn't buy again
By Many hats
from Pittsburgh, PA
I tried several pens from the box and the pen doesn't work until scribbling many times and then when it does write, it skips. Eventually it does work but I would prefer a pen that works from the start.
