Retractable Convenient Buckle Pen

Pros: Pulls back quit hard, so it always stays with you. Writes really smoothly and since it is hanging upside down, gravity keeps pulling the ink to the tip, so it keeps writing.

Cons: There is no stop on the pulling mechanism (like on a retractible mouse) and thus it keeps pulling when you write, which can be a little annoying. Mine came in black and then the ingraved circles (middle of the pen) became quite visible. They are a bit shiny, so the pen is a bit bling-bling. The pen itself feels like plastic and like it can breakdown any moment, but for now (after 2 weeks) it is still in one piece.

Other: Buy it, but do not expect to much of it!

Pros: Easy to use; different clip options make it possible to slip over a pocket or book cover - or clip securely to any loop, key chain, phone cord, or chair rung. The pen looks nice, writes well, and is comfortable to hold. It's perfect for my 87 year-old mother who always loses the pen or pencil by her phone.

Cons: It doesn't look as if it's built to last forever....either the retracting gizmo or the string will probably break before the short pen runs out of ink.

Other: You'll know if this will be useful before you order it. If there's a place you always wish you had a pen in reach - reading lamp, backpack, phone book, car, etc. this should suit you.

Pros: I like this pen so much that I bought three, to keep in the house, in the car, and on my keyring. It is small enough not to get in the way, wherever you put it, and decorative enough to have 'on show'. The pen writes well and the cord is long enough for it to be practical, and I really like the soft grip.

Cons: The only 'con' that I could see is that the arm of the clip tends to become a little loose if it is opened and closed a lot.

Other: This is a very practical little pen that you don't have to worry about losing. It can be clipped to any number of places, from a hook on the wall beside the phone, to your keyring, or a belt-loop.
