The read
What's actually worth knowing.
- The ink dries quickly and writes in a bold, dark line, which makes them useful for everyday writing, note-taking, and drawing.
- The contoured grip is meant to reduce hand fatigue, so they work well if you're doing a lot of writing at once.
- These are standard gel pens, so they work best on regular paper and aren't meant for specialty surfaces like glossy cardstock.
As of Aug 31, the Sharpie S-Gel Pens is a good price at $4.87 — versus a $4.97 typical price and a $1.49 12-month low, based on Amazon's own price history.
Its price this year
A fair price — but not a real “sale.”
Sale check Amazon shows “61% off,” measured against a $13 “list price” it doesn't charge. Its usual price is $5 — real discount ≈ 2%.
The phantom Amazon has left this $13 “list price” untouched for 28 months — while the item actually sold for about $5. It's a fixed anchor, not a price it charges.
