    I've been getting a lot of message about marvy markers and what not. Are they worth getting? They are discontinued but seems like there is still a few around. some colors like blue and red seem to be available but color link pink, yellow, light blue and what not seem to be 15 or less in quantity. There are many shades of various colors so i may get a color that's basically the same but slightly different but just wanted an overall opinion. Thx for your thoughts

    Also, can you tell us how much you can get them for? I think the value of them is disputed and not clearly set as not many ppl really say anything about it's cost when you post in the tradevalue/scammer thread

    yes of course. all the light colours are good, but i have to say, the packs are expensive and remember that ur paying for a pack where most of the colours are disgusting. i saw them on ebay and the shipping prices suck balls.

    What does it say on the Marvy Marker Barrel?

    A pack for $12-15, what's wrong with that? Rushons are $2.50 a piece and people are completely fine with that.

    I'd pay $2-3 per marker no problem O_o. Not sure what all the fuss is about.

    I highly doubt you'll find the markers cheaper here. Either way Michaels does a high mark up Marrvy products so importing from japan wouldn't be much different in terms of price.


    Hell, $3-4 for a decent marker isn't bad either. Cheap bastards dry.gif

    Oh and btw, since the Marvy Marker mod uses Rushon caps, if you do get Marvy Markers in, it would probably be a good idea to get the same colour of Rushons. wink.gif

    Marvy marker mod uses a DC marvy and 2 signo tips. Skymask's mod uses rushon caps.

    hey! that's my picture. lawl.

    and by the way, if you guys would use the little wheel on your mouse when you click a link, you can go down a page and view ALL of the products instead of just the first 10. The bottom of the page is 1300s and the next three pages are 1300s.

    Good reading skillzorz.

    Those are Leplume's. The marvy marker's are entirely different. They are colored barrels that should come in a pack similar to the Pentel Color S360 pens.
