Beware Eaxh Pen Arrives With Barcode Sticker On The Shaft

Be Warned That Each Pen Arrives With A Barcode Sticker On The Shaft. The sticker leaves very sticky residue when removed. It takes a heavy duty glue remover like Goo Gone to remove it. The sticker is plastic. If you leave it on because you don't want to deal with the hassle of removing 12 stickers and the residual glue, you will get ink on your hands as the ink on the sticker smears. I ended up taking the ink tubes and springs out and putting them in another brand's pen. The ink itself was the color that I wanted and is the ballpoint size that I need. Regarding recycling, you can pull the metal cap out easily with pliers. The rubber grips slide off fairly easily and can be reused (or donated to be used) on slimmer pens.
If Zebra made it refillable it'd be my favorite pen

I agree with so many other reviews - pen needs to be refillable or at least put in enough ink that it lasts. I can't believe how quickly these run out of ink. I'm looking for a new favorite pen, and believe me I had been recommending this to others and buying as gifts. No more until this is remedied!
Great pen! Writes very smooth and doesn't need a lot of pressure to write. I'm a Realtor and my clients also LOVE this pen for signing documents! The only downside to this pen is that it is not refillable and there isn't a lot of ink in the pen. These pens are the top of their class but it is irresponsible in today's world to not offer refills OR sell the pens with a FULL tube of ink. I'm searching for another pen. I can't, in good faith, throw 3-5 pens away each month.
Amazinng pen. The best I have every used. very low friction - this is your claim to fame on this pen. Only downside: what huge unnecessary shamefull souorce of pollution (especially since there is very little ink in each pen - why not put more and charge more and claim it is ""the longest latest pen in its category""?). Here is why I am not giving a 5 star rating: The world is moving on, becoming green, even the most archaic companies are finally getting the point about the environement. Why are you not selling refill? Just sell them at higher margin % so overall you make the same profit as on a full pen if that is your source of resistance. Just sell the refill on-line in large quatity if is one of your show-stopper (ex:; retailers do not want to sell refills on top of thte pens).
