Linc Bliss Ballpoints

[Stephen2020]

I bought a pack of 6 Link Thrill pens at Poundland, three silver and three gold - except the gold is a much better colour, orange. Very glad I bought them. The silver is a bit like pencil, nothing special but nothing bad either. I have tried some gold and silver gel pens before and they were terrible, nothing like these ballpoints.

 

 

 

Sorry, wasn't thinking when I wrote the title, it's Linc Thrill.

Ballpoints have their utility, so thanks for sharing.

Is that Link or Linc (one is Egyptian and the other Indian, IIRC Poundland carries Linc BPs)

 

Indian BPs are often of surprisingly good quality, use modern inks without crowing about it.

 

There are no-name Indian sourced BPs in the £1 aisle in our local Asda which write very well, as smooth as Paper Mate Ink-Joy (and similar) pens, but with EF needle point tips. These are 5 or 6 for £1, but in a NAFF pen-body.

This forum section is described as for "all" writing instruments. I was just letting people know they can buy a nice colour

 

Thanks Hari and general. Yes, this is Linc, they put out some good competant stuff, their gel pens are way better than Parker gel refills for example.

I bought the Oto today, 3 for £1, ballpoints with low viscocity ink, smoother than gel pens. Brilliant!

I've now also bought some of the Linc Glycer ball points. Poundland do a pack of 2 blue, 2 black and 1 red, usual good quality. Also a more interesting pack of 3 violet and 2 pink. The violet is like a dark violet/purple, very nice. The pink pens are a light pink but put out writing that is a deep pink/magenta.

The Poundland website says that no longer stock the Glycer model so they must be down to their last remaining supplies.

Ballpoints do serve their usefulness. See my signature

 

PS: Nice orange color on the pen

Depends, if it's one where writing is a matter of dragging the ink out, that's different to a nice smooth ballpen. Gel ink pens write beautifully and they can be taken anywhere and not worry about damage, loss, theft when it's budget pens.

[Stephen2020]

I bought a pack of 10 colour Glycer ballpoints, ordered them from India. They have a fine tip compared to the medium ones in Poundland.
