Staples/$1.29 single price
This is very similar to the Uni-ball Signo bit that I've reviewed. Writes very nicely with a smooth dark line without gaps or skips. The ink smears a little right after it goes down, but give it 15 sec to dry, and it doesn't smear. After the cap is off for a while, the pen starts up nicely. I even left the cap off for 2 hours, and it started up nicely.
This is a pretty generic stick pen, with a hard plastic grip that isn't very comfortable to write with. This is pretty long in your hands, without the cap posted on the end. This also unscrews to allow the ink cartridge to be removed. I'm not sure if the cartridges are available.
This pen also has a small scratchy point which went away as I rotated it in my hand.
This point is labeled 0.7, which is too broad for my taste, and I was unable to find a smaller point in the bin at Staples. This isn't a bad pen for the money, but it's got a really generic office supply look to it.
