BIC Cristal Large, Wide Point Ball Ballpoint Pens, Smooth Ink Flow, Lightly Smoked Barrel, in Blue, Pack of 50

Nice to write with

Good value when compared to other packs of the same sized pens. I'm not being paid for this review, I bought the pens maybe a month or so ago. I bought them after by chance a delivery driver had a thicker pen, not these, but similar, and I used their pen to fill out some paperwork. I needed good pens that I could use every day for work, that I didn't mind too much about if they went missing occasionally (nice pens at work tend to go missing if you leave them lying around). The pens are, relatively speaking, a joy to write with. Because it's a thicker end the pen sort-of glides over the paper and takes less effort to use. I use them all the time at work and anyone (be that friends/ family or at work colleagues/ managers/ delivery drivers) I give a pen to, either steals it and/or comments without me asking them to about how nice it is to write with. If you appreciate nice pens but need one for everyday use, don't be put off by the price, it is good value for money, rather than cheap. The only criticism I can think of is that because you use a bit more ink than you would with other pens, you will need to replace them more often. This isn't the fault of this product or the manufacturer though, just the pen size in principle, and when you've got 50 that shouldn't be a problem.

Love these larger nib sized BIC pens, have used them for years. After getting fed up with the hassle of trying to use fountain pens for everyday life I switched to the 1.6mm BIC's as they flow so smoothly, almost like a fountain pen (maybe better) they are miles ahead of the original BIC pens and handwriting looks less scratchy and spidery and writing is clearly more visible. Just be aware that as the ink flows so much more easily they don't last as long compared to the original pens, but hey if you can get them for around £12 for a box of 50 then I think that's a good deal.

I love the line thickness on these pens. They are a solid black and smooth to use.

(Without trying to sound like a Karen!) The pens were delivered on time and they work wonderfully! They are easy to use and have an amazing design, which makes them fun and unique. The quality and presentation are both excellent. However, out of curiosity, I decided to count the pens in the box and discovered that I only received 49 out of the 50 pens that were advertised. I thought it was important to mention this in case anyone else has a similar experience. Overall, the value for these pens is excellent and is worth the money, but I believe it’s essential to ensure that there are actually 50 pens given!!!

BIC is my go to pen of choice over 45 years, although the only gripe is if you forget and put the pen up-side-down in your pocket, it can leak. I do like the thicker 1.6mm point over the standard as it gives a better show. I am not sure why I bought the x50 box as When I was working it took me two weeks of writing to get through 1 pen therefore a box of 50 would last a couple of years. So in retirement I guess the boxes' contents should outlive me. Mind you at work the only way I could stop the tealeaves from nicking my pens (Engineering Stores and Goods-in) was to put them on the ear/head.

Bought it for my sons GCSE exams and it made a big difference in his confidence in terms of handwriting and timing. Worth the money

Excellent product

This is my favorite pen because of the ink flow and ease of use. Probably one of the cheapest pins on the market. Literally the first of its kind and still one of the best in its class.
