"There are four pens on my color chart (96-99) that seem a little juicier than the rest of the gel pens. Because there are so many colors and types of ink, I decided to make a color chart displaying all of the 100 gel pen colors. At a quick glance, I can see the exact color I want and then go to my labeled/numbered gel pens and grab that exact color. If you want to try and put your own color chart together, I have uploaded a blank template of my exact color chart featured in the video that is ready for you to print and color. To save this color chart template to your computer, simply right click over the picture of my color chart and “save picture as” to a location on your computer. ** Update on 5/17/16: Judie Ruda sent me 3 photos of how she used my color chart template to help label her 100 gel pen set (and to show her completed color chart as well)."
"I am very glad I got to test these for free/reduced price in exchange for my review because I just bought my first adult coloring book so I needed a good set of gel pens and these are perfect because I love all the colors especially the glittery ones. - there's glitter,metallic, pastels neon I can go on and on about all these awesome colors, the colors are all different no there's no duplicates."
"Most of these pens work well and I like the colors."

Find Best Price at Amazon"Unfortunately, I've found it difficult to find a set of gel pen with a large enough selection of green and brown pens. I purchased the 240ct of Tanmit pens, which is 120 pens & 120 refills, because other reviewers listed the large color selection and positive pen quality in their reviews. Unfortunately, the ink does not flow smoothly from these pens when compared with all the sets I own except the Color Diamond and that set is a fine tip pen set meant for detail work. FYI, flourescent pens are also glitter pens. The 4 standard pens are red, blue, green, & black. 28 GLITTER: Red Orange, Orange, Yellow Orange, Yellow, Lemon Yellow, Kelly Green, Celadon (green), Parrot Green, Turquoise, China Blue, Blue, Navy, Plum, Violet, Royal Purple, Magenta, Pink, Pomegranate, Raspberry, Red, Henna (red/brown), Brown, Gold, Black, French Grey, Warm Grey, Cool Grey (silvery), White. 16 FLOURESCENT (also glitter): Lilac, Royal Purple, Blue, Lake Blue, Kelly Green, Spring Green, Lemon Yellow, Yellow, Yellow Orange, Orange, Coral, Hot Pink, Magenta, Red, Pink, Silver. 11 DYEWARE: Violet, Red Violet, Turquoise, Royal Purple, Grey, Grass Green, Sage Green, Kelly Green, Chestnut, Mahogany, Chocolate. 19 NEON: Red, Watermelon, Coral, Red Orange, Orange, Orange Yellow, Lemon Yellow, Yellow, Spring Green, Apple Green, Kelly Green, Teal, Lake Blue, Blue, Royal Purple, Violet, Red Violet, Magenta, Hot Pink. 16 PASTEL: Yellow, Yellow Orange, Orange, Coral, Lilac, Pink, Light Pink, Purple, Lavendar, Chartreuse (yellow/green), Spring Green, Teal, Aqua, Blue, Tan White. 20 METALLIC: Red, Red Orange, Orange, Light Orange, Yellow, Yellow Green, Spring Green, Kelly Green, Lake Blue, Blue, Grape, Royal Purple,Plum, Pink, Brown, Copper, Grey, Silver, Platinum, Black. 4 STANDARD: Red, Blue, Green, Black. 6 RAINBOW. I have included photos of the color chart I made including the whole chart and the left & right side separately. I also included a photo with a Tanmit pen on the left & pens from Caliart & Soucolor. I've seen quite a few reviews on gel pens where the writers say they push down on the pens while trying to write to clear clogs. I've found that should a clog happen, firmly pushing down while trying to roll the tip of the pen with my thumb or forefinger to be more effective & less damaging to the pen. The color selection is very good and the set is priced fairly given the quality of the pens."
"The sheer number of pens is overwhelming and so far I haven't run into any major issues using them."
"Okay...sooo...I had forgotten I purchased the 120 pack of gel pens earlier in the week when I purchased this one (oops?). Anyway, onto the review: The pens have a different brand name than the 120 set but they're the exact same. This set is so much more than I'd have expected from a bulk buy of knock off gel pens from china."
"I would partially fill in an area I wanted to color, and then blend with my finger to smudge the ink and fill in the area completely."
"when i first received this item two pens leaked in the package but the rest of the pens were fine.. i was loving these pens use them for everything taking notes.. coloring in my adult coloring books writing love notes for my boyfriend before he went to work and then when the ink ran out it was time to use the refill pens that came with it.. makes it a lil bit harder when they dont code the colors to know which one go to which when some of them look so close to each other.. and the refills were crap.. when i said something to this company before about the pens leaking they wanted me to return the product before recieveing the new one which i had planned on doing but ended up in the hospital and by the time i was released it was past the time to return them."

"Bought for son, should get a 5 star rating as Dad."
"Great colour selection."
"I love the variety of colors."
"Great selection, ink flows smoothly, folding package makes for convenient storage and accessibility."
"I have had many pens, these are by far the best."
"Wonderful well writing set for the price!"
"Maybe I got bad batch, but almost every single pen was scratchy and streaky and I had to fight with the ink to get it out. I am including several pictures of my initial swatch tests with these pens showing how almost every single one is scratchy."

Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"I've never had the need to use correction tape until now."
"This correction tape is incredible useful and great."
"My only gripe is that you have to make 100% sure that you press down and evenly or you do get some corrector that doesn't detach from the ribbon appropriately, and then you have to go back and redo the line (not that that doesn't happen to must correction tapes)."
"THIS PRODUCT IS AMAZING!!!"
"It's not annoying to use like other brands and it's nice and simple."
"Everything else is great about it, but to compare to other products like BIC's, it's the fact that it doesn't tear when written on or when the tape is overlapping other tape."
"This is seriously good correction tap: 1) Rolls evenly and without breakage. 2) Perfect, 100% coverage of underlying text (no bleed through). 3) Solidly made enclosure that doesn't break or flex while being used. 4) The applicator tip (or whatever it's called) has the perfect amount of flex to roll easily over various types of paper. Overall this is the best I've ever used and annihilates the branded stuff from office supply stores."
"Have to say, I'm really surprised by all the good reviews because the way this correction tape holder is designed does not work for me at all."

Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"I use the medium for brush lettering. To use: Watercolor: Fill the tube with water and you can start!"
"I would say the brush tips compare favorably to the Derwent, Faber-Castell, Niji, and Kuretake brands."
"We can paint in the yard, or we can just paint inside without dealing with little kids spilling water cups. Fading: Water runs through the brush slowly as you paint, so if you are painting, you will eventually run out of paint and just have water on the brush."
"I got the idea from a picture on Google i found a while ago with one of these water brush's filled with black drawing ink."
"They hold a tip quite nicely, even after vigorous washing and painting. To transition between colors, I just squeeze out some water from the water tank and swish the brush tip on a napkin until the tip turns clear and no traces of the previous color are left (this takes hardly any time at all, maybe a few seconds). I find that it is sometimes difficult to control the opacity created with these brushes as the water comes out in fluctuating amounts. Thus, I find it difficult to get an even wash with these brushes, even the large brush (although, it's usually quite hard to achieve an even wash even with a quality synthetic or sable size 8 round)."

Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"The most I've ever bought was 2 packs of 48 colors each. As you'll see in my photos, some of them required some scribbling to get started or were already in the process of thinning out as I used them. You get 6 neon colors, 14 glitter colors, 8 pastel colors, 4 amazing colors (I have no idea why they're called amazing - they're your standard black, blue, red, and green ink), and 10 metallic colors. I had to scribble like mad on a few of them and some of them were already thinning which was sad to see. If I had to rank them by how well they write, it would be glitter > metallic > neon > amazing (wrote well, but ranked low because there weren't many colors and one required scribbling) > pastel."
"Honestly, I don't think is ENOUGH room to write how I feel about this product. They are also SUPER pigmented, write on all kinds of paper without bleedthrough (I use a moleskine), and the ones that are SUPPOSED to be glittery or sparkly write that way and STAY that way. Seriously, I am a journaling junkie and I would recommend these to anyone wanting a super high quality set of gel pens at an amazing price."
"It has a nice mix of pastels, some very bright, like a highlighter."
"seller did a nice job."
"I received these yesterday."
"The glitter ones were actually glittery and the metallic ones were actually metallic!"
"LOVE these pens- I have not used every single one yet, but the ones I have used are just GREAT."
"I bought these for my 10 year old daughter along with an "adult" coloring book."

Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"These are not the needle-fine tips, but more of a middle size - still small enough to write neatly, but big enough that they could be used to fill a small area with color with no issues."
"They have a fine point compared to the old-fashioned chisel-point markers, but they are certainly not as fine as a typical ink pen or Flair marker. Sharpie also makes extra-fine point markers, which are much closer to what I would consider to be a fine point."
"Goodness, I use these for so many things from writing information on luggage tags, Camera and Video equipment to labeling heavy padded envelopes which I use to hold and, organize and collect jewelry, precious stones and so on."
"And finally, because the Sharpie permanent is a solvent ink, sometimes it *will* dissolve the surface under the pen tip (especially anything with a coating or paint or gesso) and while you can write with the pen on the surface for a while, the pen will get gunked up and be useless after that use."
"I read the many reviews on this product Sharpie Fine Point Permanent Markers (24 count variety colors) and have to admit, I was hesitant to make the purchase due to missing and dried out markers in others' orders."
"This is a great price for the full suite of Sharpie® colors which I need to keep on hand in addition to mass quantities of black Sharpie® fine tip pens I go through at an amazing rate."
"I bought my first Sharpie decades ago and even though it was expensive then it was the best and shortly became to markers what Bayer is to aspirin or Xerox is to copiers. I bought a cheap 'permanent marker' from a local store and the first time the water hit the bottle, the ink ran all over the place."
"This sharpie set is great and I purchased it at a great price even at full price."

Sorry Students, No More Excuses For Standing In Line At The Sharpener. * If you have any questions click my username and send me an email."
"It does not have an automatic shut off but the cutters will get shifted away so it will sound like the pencil doesn't get sharpened any longer. Another bonus is that it has a multiple pencil guide that can fit different size pencils."
"We also tried assorted hand-crank and small sharpeners and blade replacements, but they were too difficult to manage and ended up being an even worse distraction. However, the difference in lifespan is minimal, and taking them apart to service small problems (slipped/jammed gears, clogged blade, loose screws) is equally annoying in both, but sort of manageable."
"Bought for my teacher wife because of the name and reputation in February, by the end of March would not work at all.. She brought it home and I inspected it, thinking that the switch was bad that is activated when a pencil is inserted."
"This pencil sharpener is horrible!"
"I finally got to use this product, and after sharpening 50 items in quick succession, it quit because of overheating."

"Also, liquid ink pens were popular back then too."
"True to form I got caught by something and all my tools and pen inside went flying and of course it tore beyond use."
"I just pull my PencilThings Pocket Protector out and either they feel embarrassed or they dump on me even harder for "misleading them"."
"I have been wearing pocket protectors since the 1980s -- saving a few dress shirts along the way -- but they are getting very hard to find."

"This is a great set."
"When I first opens the box, the pencils looked so ordinary that I was a little sad. Here, I added a picture of a black kitty I drew on an A4 size sketch book. It cost me a little more than half an inch of the black color pencil. I will definetly buy a delux of 150 colors later when I have more pocket money."
"Here is what the 72 count set of colors looks like... I only wish that I would have bought one of the larger count sets since I am always looking for additional colors. If you are having challenges with sharpening them there is a you tube video about it and how you should always turn the pencil, not the sharpener, in the same continuous direction. There were even explanations on how many you should put into an electric sharpener and then manually sharpen one because they overheat and break the leads!"
"Having recently purchased a large set for my older daughter on Amazon, I can say with 100% confidence that this brand has declined STEEPLY in quality. Her new set came with SERIOUSLY off-centered leads, wooden shafts that are either cracked or completely different colors from one half to the other, and most concerning, the cores in many of the pencils seems to be waxier and clumps/flakes no matter what we do. I believe that many of the higher reviews for this product are from before the company began cutting corners...a search online will quickly reveal that cracked wood, broken leads, off-centered cores, and other issues have been present for several years now."

They're bright, florescent, and the liquid consistency is fun to experiment with and dries fast so you can keep adding colors for detail. I'm so incredibly appreciative of this company's charity work, and Ive seen first hand what their product has offered to children educationally at our elementary school."

"I'm a red pen junkie. I used another brand that discontinued my favorite all time pen so I was forced to hunt my next favorite pen. One thing I never liked about the pens with caps was that the pocket clip (which I NEVER used anyway) tended to poke me in the top of my hand when writing."
