[rohitshubham]

Rs 3 pens FTW... for a person like me who loses his pen on daily basis

BTW , what is with those BIC pens that even a simple pen from them costs like 2,000 Bucks ?

I can predict it for you...
Firstly fountain pen inks are not waterproof so they can dry up if not used causing clogging in tip
secondly fountain pen inks are a lot more diluted than inks for rollerballs so the resulting writing may be very faint...

well, even Pilot's default ink is not waterproof. Let's see how it works out, from what I've seen Parkers write dark.

Well i'm too interested in results...

So, the Parker Quink ink in Pilot V5 has turned out to be really well.

Niiiccceeee....
So now I dont need to go searching for inks, i can simply refill my pen with that.

If anyone wanna know about the Trimax, then you can stay away. I've been using it for past one year or more, and their refills are just pathetic now. When I started using it first the refills were great, but now it won't write anywhere near as smoothly as it would! Honestly those 3 rupees Linc Ocean gel feels better now! Don't know what's going wrong! Only me?

may be your writing pressure is too high, causing the tip to clog

Maybe! But if there's only one thing where I am good at, that's writing.
