Promarx Grippy Retractable Ballpoint Pens - 1.0mm Fine Point, Clear Barrel, Blue Ink (3-Pack) - Perfect for Office, School, Note-Taking & Everyday Writing

For a relative in assisted living who does a great deal of Word Puzzles.2 out of 3 don't work! The third one barely writes. Threw packaging away so can't even return.I got these as a "cart filler" (you know - when you're only a buck or two short of the $25-free-shipping mark?)... but I am in love with them! They write smoothly and the ink flows very evenly - always on the first write, too - no pre-scribbling needed. The grip is very comfortable and the clip holds sturdy to the top of folders and papers. I've been using them religiously and the ink seems to last forever.So, it may sound cheesy to write a review for these babies, but I'd buy them again. In fact... in the cart they go again!These are very nice pens. The ink is rich and bold and flows smoothly and constantly. And there are times I won't use these for a while and then I'll start using them again and the ink comes right out. I hate when you don't use a pen for a while then you try to write with it and the ink doesn't come out. The grips on pens feel great and make your fingers feel nice and relaxed when writing. I'm very satisfied.Just writes wellThese seem to be very nice, inexpensive, retractable pens. So far, they write cleanly, without skips and are comfortable in the hand. Pretty good for a nice pen costing less than $2.00.Zero stars not possible, but zero stars nonetheless. 3 pens in the pack. NONE OF THEM WORK!!! I assumed only the first one was defective when I tried & would have been fine with other 2 if They worked and not returned the package BUT NONE of the 3 worked. Total garbage-terrible.Shipment was speedy and I was happy to get these in because I ordered them from the past and LOVE the ones from then. When these came i noticed the packaging was green and I was thrown off. The I tested a pen. And they are nothing at all like the photo. Compare the packaging and the pen to the pic listed and they are two DIFFERENT items.
