## Description

Product Description desertcart Basics Retractable Ballpoint Pen - Blue - 12-Pack From the Manufacturer desertcart Basics

Review: Solid pens, great for everyday use - Honestly, these pens are way better than I expected for the price. The colors are nice and actually useful (not just random shades you’ll never use), and they make organizing notes or lists a lot easier. They write really smoothly—no skipping or scratching—and the ink comes out consistently. I’ve been using them daily and haven’t had any issues with them drying out or leaking. They’re also comfortable to hold, even if you’re writing for a while. Nothing fancy, but they just work, which is exactly what I wanted. Overall, just a good, reliable set of pens. If you need something simple for school, work, or home, these are a safe pick.
Review: One of the best pens ever! - Such a great one! 12 pens for a low price is awesome, big it's even better when it works really well. Most pens to me do not fit my hand well and I often feel my penmanship suffers for it. These are really comfortable and write really well. I am a Girl Scout leader and take lots of notes. Lol as long as noone steals my pens, they last really long! Another thing, if you go to the store, it's so hard to find a pen with blue ink. Cannot go wrong here! Extremely nice and almost fun to use!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pen Snobs - These ARE Great Pens! Try Them!
*by D***B on November 10, 2025*

I will admit - I was skeptical. As a certified pen snob - I have my “Princess Picks for Perfect Pens” but those are all quite pricey. Low on funds, I decided to try these Amazon Basics Pens - despite many just bizarre negative reviews. You folks who claim these broke on you - what exactly are you doing with these pens- driving them under your SUV? I clicked the retracting mechanism 100x and it did not break. I wrote with it for over an hour taking notes on a Zoom and it did not run out of ink halfway down the page. I question the people writing such peculiar negative reviews. These pens perform just as well as my favorite brand and they are so affordable at a fraction of the cost. No bleed-thru on the pages and it has dark, smooth, high quality blue ink - critical for legal work. I love that these do not have the rubber gripper affecting nearly every pen in existence now because those hurt my hands and attract lint. Gross. Whereas these Amazon Basics Pens are smooth, easy to hold and have excellent longevity with none of them breaking inexplicably - as reported by other customers. Absolutely I recommend these pens and will definitely buy them again. So glad I took the chance on the fantastic budget price for the quantity because they are great household pens and good for work too! Great product, Amazon!
