Better than Wine Charms
I purchased these metallic markers for an upcoming wine party. I have used wine charms many times, but most people forget which charm they chose. I much prefer being able to write on glass.I am a fan of gold and silver because I think they are more festive than the wine markers I have bought from wine shops that came in dull colors that I can barely read.These markers came in a white tuck box. I like that the felt tip is wide enough, so I can clearly see what I have written on my wine glass. The description said permanent but when used on glass it is not permanent. The marker stayed all night and was easy to wash off with plain water. This was a big plus for me since I wouldn’t want permanent marker on my stemware.I would buy these again and think they would make a wonderful gift since they come in a box. The price is competitive, and the ink is better than others I have tried. With a six pack I don’t worry about leaving them out on the tasting bar for my guests to use.I did not try the markers on any other surface than glass, so my review is based on glass only. I am pleased and feel like I received a great product at a great price.

Not a fine point
I just got these and the ink on things like glass and coated paper is VERY SLOW driving and subject to smearing until dry and then appears permanent. After that it would probably have to be scraped off glass and remain on coated glossy papers. What I dislike most is that I was expecting a very fine point but it is not. The point has the shape of a regular sharpie and has about the same size point. Thus it is completely impracticable for doing find print or things like signing an art painting. The ink is just that, ink. It does not have a ball in the tube for making sure it is stirred -- and is somewhat thinner than the pens with that feature. Because of that I will find limited use for them. However, for the price they ARE a good bargain for what they can be used for. Just don't expect to be able to do fine printing or lines with them.

Works best on black paper!
These markers are shiny and vibrant, I tested all the markers and they all worked, they also worked on plastic and glass not just paper! I do find they show up best on black paper, but still look good on white paper as well.

Excellent for signing CD insert booklets (6-pen, Gold and Silver set)
We provide these to touring musicians to allow them to sign CD insert booklets at concerts. They produce bright lettering with excellent contrast on the often dark-colored, shiny coated paper CD booklet booklets. The musicians love them so much they usually wind up walking off with the pens. The pens flow smoothly producing bright, very metallic silver or gold writing. The line width is perfect for a bold signature. The line width is a "healthy" 1.5 mm as specified. It is by no means "fine", so that adjective should be removed from the description. Anyone (like the person who wrote "fine" in the description) who does not understand that 1.5 mm is relatively "broad" should go back to school to study metric measurements.

These work better than the metallic sharpies

Good for Small Projects
The product was great for writing on dark blue envelopes. Looks nice and easy to see. However, this is not a fine point and is about the size of a typical Sharpie which is what I was hoping to avoid. The text ended up taking more space on the envelope. My biggest issue was that one pen only got me through approximately 7 envelopes before it was completely out of ink (addressing envelopes was the project). It clearly started fading each envelope that was written out. I ended up using all 4 pens then going back to the original silver Sharpie I started with to finish the project.

RAN OUT AFTER WRITING ONE LETTER
I only used the gold ones, but both ran out of ink after writing only one front side of an 8 1/2 x 11 piece of paper. AND I didn't write that much because these are NOT fine point as the description says. The letters all ran together and the writing was hard to read. By the end of the first page, the gold was faded and the letter looked horrible. When I tried again with the 2nd gold marker the SAME thing happened. Waste of money and returning. Using my 9 yrs old Crayola metallic ones instead!

Amazing!
These are fantastic for the price. I have seen pens at Michael's that are double the price for a pack of two. Here you get a pack of 6 and they all work great. I love that the gold color is a true cold and a bronze or too yellow. Perfect for Christmas cards or fancy signatures.

Example writing in their picture isn't legit.
Not as fine tipped as the example image of writing suggests in their picture and therefore fail to meet my requirements. They seem like good pens for larger work but not for writing invitations which is specifically why I needed them. Will be returned.

Write so nicely
These pens are really good, 3 silver 3 gold. As you can see from my photos they write very well too. They came well packaged, I had enough to share with my friend she likes to do craft bits, she was trying to colour in plastic, they aren't permanent to be able to do this. For cards and paper bits, very good. Can't fault them :)

Waste of money
Awful quality. The gold is a very strange gold and not what I’d consider metallic gold at all. And didn’t give any depth of colour. One of the gold pens did not work. The silver was ok but was quite sheer and only one of the pens worked. Complete waste of money and had to buy more to continue with the art project. Would not recommend or buy this brand again.

NOT a permanent marker at all and NOT waterproof, false advertising.
NOT a permanent marker at all and NOT waterproof, false advertising. I've tried these 3 times already to re-do writing as it keeps smudging off when touched..... I even left it over night to dry and it still smudged when touched so I ended up getting a damp tissue and wiping it off instead... thats right... a damp tissue to wipe away the waterproof permanent marker pen. AVOID

Pleasantly surprising
These turned up in a non-descript white box with the pens inside a bag. Three gold, three silver. On first impressions the pens look really professional, and have a nice weight to them. I've only tested one of each at the moment, but they write beautifully. I'd say they are better than my Metallic Sharpies. The colours are nice as well, very metallic and shiny. The silver is my favourite.
