SharpiePro Permanent Marker, Fine Point, Black, 12 Count (2017818)

Only markers I have found that really are nice and wide and permanent.

Sorry my review is tl:drThese are the only markers I use. I work in transportation/e-commerce job so I have to use markers to write on cardboard boxes everyday. People at work think I'm stupid for buying my own markers instead of using the free ones that our job provides. The ones they provide are still sharpie and have chisel tip but aren't Pro.It's worse when they see how much I pay for 12 markers, but once I tell them to use my marker they realize why I'm willing to pay 30$ for 12 markers. Compared to all other markers, these are way better to write on cardboard surfaces plus many other surfaces. The ink comes out darker, it doesn't fade, doesn't make that sound that regular markers make on cardboard, or give that feeling that you're scraping the marker on the cardboard and damaging it. It writes smooth and lasts way longer than any other marker. I have to be careful where I leave my markers because people try to stealing them from me but its easy for me to get it back since I'm the only one who uses those markers, if I see someone using one especially the same color I instantly know they took it.I highly recommend buying these markers even if they cost $2.50 for a single one. It will last you alot longer than any other marker, it'll write on all surfaces smoothly(from my experience).The only thing that people might dislike about this marker is the strong paint-like smell it gives.I dont mind it al, to be honest I didn't even notice until someone pointed it out.I will never use another marker ever again, unless they come out with the Sharpie Pro^2 or something like that.You wont be disappointed for spending $30 for 12 markers.Let me warn you though, once you use these markers you will have a very hard time using any other marker.This is my 3rd time buying a 12 pack of black markers, and I've bought the red 12pack twice, and I'm going to buy the blue ones for the first time.Also, one time I received a defect set of 12 black sharpie pros, i contacted sharpie and told them the markers were fading out a lot faster than usual(like within 2 weeks of daily use instead of nearly a month per marker)and sharpie sent me another 12 pack of sharpie pros. All they asked for was to send a video of using each marker on a piece of paper to prove they were fading. Keep in mind on paper It's easy to mark compared to cardboard and they still showed up faded and some barley even worked. Thankfully sharpie sent me replacements for all 12, and the replacements I got have lasted me until now. You're more likely to lose one or have it stolen from you than to see it die.

Works great on damp boxes

They work great for carboard doesn't dry fast last me good time depends how much you use it

Found out about these markers because someone made the mistake of leaving one sitting around and the moment I used it, I snagged it and ordered more. I work in a restaurant so I often have to mark wet and oily surfaces with prep dates and these things are beasts. I’ll never buy a different kind if I’m honest

As long as you don’t use it on cardboard or wood they would definitely last long

I work in a kitchen and I was burning through normal sharpie 1 a week. Because working on a kitchen things might be wet, greasy, or none paper surface.I bought these to see if they work and they will really will they are long lasting and write on wet surface and pretty any material I need to write on. This is professional strength so the smell is way more intense (after you only a new one but the smell goes a away after a day or 2). When you first start using them make sure to put the lid on until it clicks or it might dry out the marker.

It works well, it's a Sharpie!
