Giveaway: Zebra Surari Emulsion Ink Pens

Sold HERE.

Reviewed HERE.

Given away RIGHT HERE!

When I bought my batch of Zebra Surari pens from JetPens, I made sure I got enough to spread the wealth around a bit.  After I squirreled away a couple for myself, I still had nine left over, so I am going to give away three pens to each of three winners of this giveaway.  Here are the standard rules:

1. Leave one comment on this post anytime between now, and Thursday night at 11:59 PM Eastern Time.  You are limited to one entry.  Feel free to link this giveaway on your blog, or share it with anyone you feel is a true pen addict.  If you have a blog, I would love a link back, but it is certainly not required for entry into the contest.

2. For this contest, I will pick three winners at random from the comments section of this post.  The comments will be numbered in the order they are received, i.e. the first comment is #1, the second #2, and so on.  The Random Integer Generator at random.org will be used to pick the number of the winners.

3. The contest winners will be posted on Friday, July 16th.  The winners will have one week to email me at the address posted in the right sidebar.

4. I will ship internationally.  I know there are many international readers and fans of The Pen Addict, and I will gladly ship to you at my expense.

Thanks and good luck!

Review: Uni-Ball Signo DX 0.5mm Black

Uni-Ball Signo DXDo you own a Uni-Ball Signo DX yet?  If not, why?

This is one of the pound-for-pound champions of all cheap pens, but unlike the Uni-Ball Vision Elite I just reviewed, it is not readily available at traditional brick and mortar retail outlets - at least in the U.S..  I haven't really figured out why though.  It is loved universally, comes in a rainbow of colors, well made, and very affordable.  Bring this pen to the shelves Uni-Ball!

While I personally grab for the Pilot Hi-Tec-C before the DX, I would recommend this pen to Pen Addict readers first.  It is a more consistent writer, and many people prefer the conical tip of the DX over the needle of the Hi-Tec-C.  But it really just boils down to preference.  I haven't met a DX that I don't like, so hopefully you will find them likable too.
