Paper Mate InkJoy 300RT Retractable Ballpoint Pens | Medium Point (1.0 mm) | Black | 12 Count

My preferred pen. Great value for money. Comfortable to hold

Good pens, black ink and good grip at the end of the pen, which helps when my son is using them at school. Good value for money, and other colours available.

These are the best pens, BUT there are bad batches out there. Batches that'll snap easily or that constantly unscrew. But for the most part these are the best pens I can find. They write well and last a good long while, nice and smooth too. The price tends to wobble, I try to get them under £15.

Well made and long lasting pens.

I have used Inkjoy pens before and, becoming increasingly frustrated by cheap biros that never write when you want them to, I decided to buy a box of these and chuck the other brands out. What a pleasure it is to be able to grab one of these and know that it will write perfectly every time. You may need to remove the protective wax from the tip before the first use but other than that, you're good to go. They feel comfortable to hold & write beautifully. Importantly, they don't smudge which is great, especially for card writing. All these factors mean that they may appear more expensive than other pens, but they are more than worth it, in my opinion. These are the retractable ones, push tops. You can get them cheaper if you don't mind replacing caps on them. Now, if I could just stop the invisible man from stealing them..... Added note. I am surprised by the complaints about these pens, as, touch wood, I have always found them excellent. What surprises me more though, is why nobody who has had problems hasn't contacted Papermate. They're not some fly by night company, I'm sure they would want to know that they're either experiencing manufacturing faults or someone is selling fakes.

My favourite pen for writing the millions of pages of notes that I make during meetings, that I will likely never read again! I only wish I could get this many in a pack in the turquoise colour. It’s a lovely colour to write with. Blue will do though.

Love to write in my diary with the pens

Not delivered to the place I asked for. Thrown on the step in the rain. Not happy. Item is great
