PARKER IM Ballpoint Pen, Premium Dark Violet and Chrome with Medium Point Black Ink Refill (1975568)

Xmas present for a friend, loved it

Good quality

I bought this pen as it was listed as having black ink. It came with a blue ink cartridge, which was damaged and leaked all inside the body of the pen. The pen itself is lovely, but disappointed to have to buy a new cartridge as it was not to colour listed and looked like an old, used one which leaked everywhere. Cleaned up pen, but would not buy again.

Did not feel like a parker pen

Purchasing an expensive parker pen you‘d expect quality; however, packaging appeared cheap and flimsy. The pen was partly unscrewed on receipt and does not write smoothly at all. Item looks and feels cheap. NO BLACK INK SUPPLIED AS ADVERTISED.

Quality product, beautiful

I bought this one for a friend she loves it

Appealing colour, good weight, and easy to hold. Writes beautifully. Arrived quickly.

I love the violet color - it is understated and classy. I put in a Parker bold black refill, as I like bold lines of 1.0 mm or more. Fun pen to write with and I like that it is retractable.

Unfortunately, the pen I received was not new, the pen came in pieces in the box - fine point blue cartridge was included and I hate fine point blue pens. I would return it, but the hassle is not worth it. Just if you’re reading this, know you may get a used product with the wrong ink while paying full price.
