Default White signo uni-ball pen

Anyone now where this white pen can be purchased? I have heard so many great things about the pen. Thanks. Carol

Try you LSS or, I think SU even sells them. Good luck.

Call your SU demo. They are on page 183 of the current catalog and cost $3.95.

I have the SU one and the Inkssentials, which I bought from http://www.allthatscraps.com/index.p...oducts_id=5749

It's $3.00 at All That Scraps with free shipping on orders over $25 (or $2 shipping under $25).

I've always had problems with my SU pen - bad flow, split tip (when I write with it - there are 2 lines), etc. The Inkssentials works really well for me. HTH!

Try your local art supply store. I had the fortune of being in Japan recently and bought a couple boxes at an art supply store that came out to about $1.50 per pen.

I prefer the Inkssentials one, too. I bought my first one at a LSS, but Flourishes carries it in their store, which is where I got my second one.

I'll bet you just got a bad one, you should have your demo return it or replace it. I LOVE my SU signo gel pen! It never fails like some other brands do. I have actually used up 2 now (as in empty) and am on my third. Any time I show it to others they end up ordering one!

I know, I should have! The first pen I received had no cap, had to call my demo to replace that one. I just didn't want to bother her again..... I think I am an unlucky SU customer. Got the mat pack and the lines were mismatched from the holes, had to replace that. My replacement is still not right, but I let that go.....
My Saffron inkpad is blotchy and brownish....... sorry to vent a little! :confused:

I am going to have to try the one from Allthatscraps.com next time I place an order. I am a SU demo and the ones I bought from SU often clog up on me and frustrates the life out of me!

I wouldn't recommend this pen. Mine is very light and has inconsistent flow. When it does work in a nice thick line, it shows up in a double line almost, with no color in the middle.

I much prefer the Sakura Souffle pen.

The Signo is good, but the new Inkssentials is even better! Another vote for it!

I have about 6 of the SU white Signo ones and I love them. I have not experienced the problem with skipping or not working. I am sorry some are having these problems.
Blessings.
