Parker Jotter Originals Ballpoint Pen | Classic Magenta Finish | Medium Point | Blue Ink | 1 Count

really nice pen to use. refill easy to get from here or newsagent or some supermarkets. nice range of colours to suit your moods

I’m an old Parker pens fan, but I’m quite disappointed with this reincarnation of the classic Jotter fountain pen, like the vector the barrel will crack after a few years of abuse.Would I give this one to a student who needs a good inexpensive pen set? No, because I prefer the platingum over the Parker if I want a more balanced and reliable fountain pen to write with.Ink flow is awkward, will leak like crazy over your fingers, be prepared for an awkward start and rougher penmanship, nibs could be lot better and more smooth to write with, depends on the ink that is used be prepared for a lot of smudging on paper, is it versatile? Err not after all the decades of practice, like to have a set of italic nibs or left handed nibs. Size wise it is fine but not the most enjoyable pen to use after hours of writing. Thanks for the very bright colours though, it is extremely quirky collection.Pro’s fine if you’re wanting to buy a name, con’s awkward bugger for a first fountain pen, plastic barrels don’t last long after a few years.Otherwise you can’t go wrong with a Parker as a backup pen. If you can put up with the problems that come with the pen, it’ll do you for a number of years.

Great pen. Easy to write beautifully. Comfortable to write with not too heavy. Brilliant value for money for a Parker pen!

Great item, packed well

Writes beautifully. Refills are easy to find and last well.

Both of my older daughters use these pens for school work and they are a good intro to ink pen use. The ink cartridges (we use quink as it is washable) are easy to change and last for ages. The shaft of these pens can split of overtightened so some care/awareness of this is required. The three star on value for money reflects this issue as thicker plastic would be better. Otherwise, light, easy to use and a cost effective option when starting to use proper pens.

Very good

Parker pens are always my go to pen.
