BIC4 Colours Fun Retractable Ballpoint Pens - Box of 12 with Light Blue Pastel Barrel and Medium Point (1.0 mm)

I love these pens more than anything. I admit freely that I am a pen snob, I have pens that are super expensive and I have a huge variety of all sorts of brands, but this is a staple. I can't imagine not having one at hand. I have bought this exact kind for years now and it's perfect for journals, note taking, and for my calendar. The pen is thick enough that it feels really comfortable even if you are like me and tend to hold on too tight, it doesn't strain your hand so you can keep writing. I have used this for non stop note taking 8 hours each day for 3 days and still felt good afterwards.

Great gift item for teacher appreciation. And my colleagues LOVED them! Not just your regular black, blue, and red color inks. Much cheaper than purchasing from Office Max/Office Depot. Would definitely recommend to a friend.

I had to scroll like you just did very far in to get to this blue base one and I bought some a second time. The base plastic cracks where it screws together but I like these anyway.

I bought these for my class. My students loved them. Writing is always better in colors.

Love this pens, They didn't have anything like that in here... will definitely buy again, the pens arrived as described and super fast.

Love these pens!

Love the colors! I am a nurse and use different colors for different things on my report sheet.

Arrived on schedule, and the package was the proper size. Works fine with no problems.

I ordered this item, but feel very misled by the main description of the item for a box of 12 pens. While this is an option available - currently for just over £19 - the advert defaults to the price of 1 loose pen. So look closely before you order - £2.50 is for 1 loose pen only. This shouldn't be allowed. The title should be clearer that there are options of 1 pen, 3 or a box of 12, and if they want to keep the description as it is, then the price should default to the box of 12. I order on behalf of my NHS team and always try to keep costs low and best value for money - in this case I have been misled and feel awful that our budget has been wasted. I would like a refund please as I feel very deceived!

I like writing in colours as I feel that different paragraphs and notes are easier to pick out if a different colour is used. I find that this also adds a bit of joy to writing and is softer on the eyes than harsh black pen on white paper. I prefer the pastel colours and will always buy these. I also use this on the family calendar as I find that important notes ‘jump out’ more when in a colour as opposed to a handwritten entry in standard black pen, which is not dissimilar to the days of the week that are already on the calendar itself. I also keep handwritten contact info relating to different departments at work and find that contacts are easier to differentiate from one another if each entry is added in a different colour from the last. Have got several colleagues using these now after trying to pinch mine.

Item arrived quick but the actual item received was not what was pictured. I did read through the details and based on that expected 3 of the same pens (as featured in the photo) I don't recall reading 'colours may vary."I work in a school and use the pink/purple/green & turquoise pens regularly. However, I only received a pack containing 1 of these pens and 2 of the black/blue/red &green pens which are no use to me.Disappointing not to receive what was pictured/described.

I know these were described as "open box". What I didn't realise is that 2 out of the 3 pens were crushed and split. I thought stuff described as open box had to be fit for purpose. I never would have bought these had I known. Definitely not a bargain.

I bought this to use at school as we mark in pink and green biro. With the precautions in place for Covid 19, it made sense to have one pen rather than two and to have my own equipment. These pens fulfil this requirement.The only downside, they don't survive a wash, I forgot the pen was in my pocket so it got a wash. Would not recommend treating the pen like this.
