iBayam Colored Pens for Journaling Note Taking, 36 Vibrant Colors Fineliner Pens for Office School Teacher Student Classroom Supplies, Journal Planner Writing Back to School Supplies, Fine Tip Markers

So, let me start off by saying, the price for these markers is fair. All 36 of mine work well and seem to not smear or bleed on my moleskine. That being said, here is a list of some pros and cons I’ve noticed as an artist who has used high end art pens such as Stabilo and Prismacolor.Pros:- the pens don’t seem to bleed unless firmly pressed downwards forcefully; while writing normally they did just fine.- the tips are firm.- caps go on and stick at the end easily.- the color range is fairly okay- they’re sleek and aren’t at all chunky to take in a pencil bag.Cons:- the color of the ink doesn’t really match the color of the pen caps/ends— that being said, some of the pen caps and ends seem to be the same color as each other- some colors seem too similar to each other.- there are no names/numbers on the pens so it is hard to organize- some colors could be more vibrantAll in all, I think they’re a fair purchase, probably a 3.5/5 star one, in fact. They’re good for beginners who aren’t sure if they’d like to start doing pen work in their art and for people who want to start bullet journaling.

I was pleasantly surprised with the case these pens (fineline markers) came in. I usually throw away the cases that these types of things come in because they *say* they are good in the description when you are buying them but the reality is a cheap piece of plastic. BUT, this case is cool! It's just thicker plastic, but instead of one straight piece for 36 pens, it folds in half. And, the paper on one side has a color swatch from each pen! It did annoy me that the pens weren't completely in the same order as the paper showed the swatches, but the color groups were together in the package so it only took about 2 minutes to rearrange and put them in order so now I know exactly what color I'm grabbing. And they are pretty true to cap color... which I don't find happens all too often.I was really sad and disappointed last night when I tried all the markers and three of them seemed dry. The ink in the majority of them flowed great and had vibrant ink. I contacted the company through Amazon, went to bed, and had an email from iBayam when I woke up. I had just asked if I could replace the 3 dry pens- they are sending me a completely new pack. Amazing customer service.When choosing between similar products on Amazon, I turn to the recent reviews when making my final decision. That's why I took the time to write this - I highly recommend these pens and company. If my replacement pack has faulty pens in it, I will update my review. I'm hoping they are all good, because the ones I have used are great!

I am really satisfied with the quality of pens, however I only received 1 pack of 18 pens when I was supposed to receive 36. I am missing my other pack of pens. Highly disappointed. I was looking forward to receiving all 36 pens!After only receiving 18 pens, I contacted the company and they sent all 36 pens. They could have just sent the other 18 missing pens, but when above and beyond by sending out the whole pack. I love these pens and they are a great quality. Easy to write with and easy to use.

I was really pleasantly surprised by this product! After reading the reviews, I was a little worried, but I figured for only $10 it was worth a shot. The biggest concern I've seen expressed is that the actual colors vary significantly from the color shown on the pen cap/bottom, but as you can see in the first photo, I found this was really only true in the light purples and the reds. I'm actually quite glad about this, because the colors on the pen make them look identical, so it's nice that there's more variety than it may appear! I also didn't experience any bleed-through when I tested it in my planner (second picture) and on an index card (third picture), which made me very happy as these are the two items with which I most plan to use the pens.Pro-tip: if you're like me, and you like to know exactly what color you're about to get, you can take the package inserts and use the backs to make swatches that line up with pens and make it easier to pick (fourth picture). I was a little worried these would smudge, as the inserts have a slightly glossy finish, but I was once again pleasantly surprised. Overall, these were well worth the $10 price tag, and I'd highly recommend them!

I love all the colors are so bright and vibrant. My only complaint is that they smear and they bleed through the paper if you're not careful. I bought them to use in my teacher planner and I ended up having to buy a new one because everything I wrote went through the page I don't know that I would buy them again for that reason
