    Pilot G2 Retractable Premium Gel Ink Roller Ball Pens, Fine Point, Assorted Colors, 8-Pack (31128)

    • The ink is very smooth but does smear when you highlight them even when the ink is left to dry for a few minutes
    • They write so smoothly and have dark ink
    • My only gripe is that the ink doesn't set very well and you need to let it dry a bit or you will get it all over your hand
    • I think their green is the best looking green ink you can get.--versatility-all levels of fine points work well, from standard bold to ultra fine (historically, fine point gels/rollers have stunk)--write on most anything-these will write on paper products many other pens struggle with, such as Super Sticky PostIts--value--try to find a pen that writes this well for anywhere remotely close to the price
    • Smooth ink flow
    • the is the bleed, but the ink is really vivid and strong, the point is fine so is really accurate on your handwriting
    • Enjoy using purple ink and like the way the Pilot G2 puts out the ink - no leakage!
    • Amazing colors and very consistent ink.
    • The ink is nice and dark and they there is minimal to no skips in
    • Writes beautifully, ink is vibrant, and doesn't blot when pausing like some pens tend to do.
    • Skip free fine point gel ink.
    • The ink dries fast and never smears
    • The ink is smooth and colors are beautiful
    • Especially nice ink flow in the fine point, easy to use, no cramping with hands or fingers that are achy/sore from arthritis, fibromyalgia, etc
    • Best retractable pens ever, the ink last longer and is very thick when writing
    • The ink is nice, durable and dark
    • Reliable ink delivery and comfortable "fat" grips.
    • If you need an ink pen for regular work at home or in the office, I cannot recommend the Pilot G2 Retractable Premium Gel Roller Ink Pen - its unreliable ink delivery is a deal-breaker for serious work.- Chipper F. Xavier, Esq.
    • I really like that they work until the Ink runs out and don't just die randomly like many pens do.
    • On slicker paper, such as cards, I did have some smearing of my hand brushed the ink while writing, not as fast drying as I would like, but not a big deal if you are careful
    • I set it down for a while and the ink seemed to come into the tip again, but only worked for about eight words and died out again
    • I love these, but not all of the colors in the pack have that smooth "G2" gel ink feel.
    • ink lasts pretty good when you're using one, mainly for everything.
    • Beautiful, smooth ink, last a good long time, and feel great in the hand.
    • these do not bleed like older wet designs have--fast drying-these smear very, very little (red and purple tends to smear more than the other colors, for whatever reason FYI)--durable ink-this ink holds up better over time than older generation gel/rollerballs have and resists fading from UV light super well--colors-blue, black, green, and red all use colors that are easy on the eyes, give good contrast, and aren’t ugly
    • The only pens I write with, smooth writing, nice ink.
    • These are my favorite ink pens and I love this color pack for my desk calendar.
    • Nice smooth stroke, but the ink runs out WAY to fast and they cost to much for that!
    • Super smooth ink flow and the color is dark enough to work as well as blue or black
    • And I needed a good pen for school and gel pens don't always work for me because my hand runs across the paper and smears my ink
    • However 3 of the colors did not work well, the ink appears to be dried out
    • Very fluent ink flow from barrel.
    • The ink will smudge with water.
    • The ink flows smoothly with no breaks or runs, and does not bleed thru paper (notebook paper, post-its, etc)
    • Plus, it writes smoothly and doesn't have the dots of missing ink.
    • Ink seems spotty at times.
    • the ink is nice and rich in color

    • Two of the five did not have rich ink lines while writing, rather they were a bit scratchy
    • The ink comes thru the page, not smooth when writing.
    • but it seems to either bleed too much ink and look sloppy or not print any ink at all
    • Good ink amount, nice click, firm and soft rubber grip so it won't fall off after heavy use, writes smoothly and won't bleed through very much
    • The ink is smooth and doesn't bleed through.
    • If you need an ink pen for regular work at home or in the office, I cannot recommend the Pilot G2 Retractable Premium Gel Roller Ink Pen - its unreliable ink delivery is a deal-breaker for serious work.- Chipper F. Xavier, Esq.
    • Anyway, the ink they put in came out like a champ and the colors were indeed colorful.
    • Especially nice ink flow in the fine point, easy to use, no cramping with hands or fingers that are achy/sore from arthritis, fibromyalgia, etc
    • The G2 is a great pen - soft flowing ink
    • Ink can be just a tiny tad slow to dry, but worth it for how they write.
    • Overall, the breadth of colors and the smooth dispensing ink (which dries relatively quickly) make this a great pen set.
    • I like these--nice rolling ball-points; bright red inks.
    • The only thing that could be improved is the ink being more consistent with a ball point instead, other than that, it's very good for the price.
    • If you like gel ink, you can't go wrong with these.
    • The ink is dark and flows wells.
    • These don't write well, the ink is not very dark and they LEAK
    • They write beautifully and without smearing the ink
    • Damp wet hands, rain, sweat, condensation from a drink... any amount of liquid moisture smudges the ink.
    • Enjoy using purple ink and like the way the Pilot G2 puts out the ink - no leakage!
    • Delicious red ink flows from this marvel of human engineering
    • Great ink pen
    • Ink runs smoothly and I love the light blue color
    • The black ink is a little too tacky and tends to glob up on the tip
    • Other pens like to glob ink all over the place and then smear everywhere, but not the G2
    • BUT the ink drawn like hella fast.
    • The only reason I give 4 and not 5 stars is that the ink in the pink and purple colors is sometimes a bit "choppy" when coming out
    • Only teal ink was strong
    • I need to correct (in red) important documents and these pens are superb at providing a fluid and crisp thin line of bright red ink through the original type that needs correcting.
    • The ink in the Pilot G2 glides smoothly across the page and it doesn't smear, which is important because I'm left-handed
    • The ink is very smooth but does smear when you highlight them even when the ink is left to dry for a few minutes
    • The ink also flows but doesn't smudge
    • I'm left handed, and found that I didn't have those annoying ink stains/smudges after using these pens
    • Smooth flowing ink.
    • My favorite ink pens, smooth writing, comfortable grip.
    • These multi-color pens have very vivid ink.

    • Well they have a fat barrel, a rubber grip and lay down some seriously smooth ink that doesn't make my hand cramp like every other pen in the free world

    • Really smooth writing pen, with beautiful green ink

    • I get the boring blue and black, but they write nice, and the ink flows well
    • The ink is replaceable and never stops writing until it's out

    • My favorite non permanent ink pen
    • first, they have a generous ink supply and second, they're not much more expensive than the older type pens
    • Good feel in hand, smooth action on paper, dark ink
    • However, the lime green pen is kind of useless - i don't know if the one in my package was just defective or what, but it's way too light, and the ink doesn't glide smoothly like other G2 pens

    • writes smooth ink is GREEN
