Cross Rolling Ball Slim Gel Ink Refill for Selectip Pens, Medium - Purple

LOVE my Cross pen and the gel refills. However, I'm not sure if it's the purple ink or I just got a dud, but this one seems to not be working that well. It's not as smooth and fluid as the blue ink I normally use. It's like the ink is dried up inside. Hoping it gets better with use...but it's been a few days already. :( **REVISED** After a little bit more usage, I have to admit, I'm 100% pleased with this ink. It's just as good as the black and blue inks I'm used to buying. Just more colorful!!

With Cross pens you have no choice but to buy their refill s-- this ink is great, flows well, but goes fast and the refills don't last that long. New clogs, strong colors, just feels expensive for what you get (and never goes on sale).

I ordered the purple refill for my Cross silver pen. I ordered the purple because it’s a nice color and a departure from boring blue and black. But this guy Joe at the bar saw me use this pen… and would you believe that he had the gall to make a remark about how the color was kind of feminine? I laughed at Joe’s insult, pretending not to mind. I noticed that coincidentally his pen was lying in front of him also, so I thought I’d ask him about it. “Is that your pen?” I asked? “Yeah, that’s my pen” he responded. “ Why’d you ask? “It’s a nice pen, I just didn’t know whose it was. I wanted to make sure it didn’t get lost” I said. “Oh… thank you” replied Joe. “Now why don’t you take that pen” I said softly “and shove it up your…” I struck him with the pen a few times, he dropped to the floor.. sobbing. “You hear a little girl?” I asked the other guys at the bar? “Anyone hear a little girl?” “Who’s the tough guy now? Huh? You don’t like purple, tough guy? Think you’re tougher than me with your black pen?” Purple is a legitimate color for a pen, don’t ever tell me otherwise. Anyhow, the ink is of the highest quality, flowing very smoothly. I highly recommend this official refill.

I bought two of these purple refills for my father who uses a Cross pen. His favorite color is purple, but the Staples he orders from only carries blue and black. I recently asked him how long the first refill lasted, and he said it lasted about 2 months. He uses his pen quite regularly with his job. I'm sure a blue or black refill will last longer than that, but 2 months isn't too bad for a different color every now and then.

The replacement pen on the day one stopped writing. Since I did not start using immediately, could not return to Amazon. The production year on it was 07 2016, although I bought it in June 2022. I guess the ink simply got dry in 6 years. Went to garbage, wasted money

My favorite pen! I guard my pens at work with my life!
