    Price: 1,050 yen is for 10 units? if not, Mitsubishi will report huge loss after few months.

    Why oil based? Couldn't they find something more eco?

    I could never pay $10 for a pen... They look cool though I guess.

    @some14some: You mean Mitsubishi Pencil, not Mitsubishi. Different companies.

    And their pens (etc) are popular amongst designers, despite the price.

    I hope this is a pen set and not 10 bucks for 1 pen.

    1,050 yen for a 2-color pen? Heck, I can get a 2-color pen with a mechanical pencil for 105 yen.

    I already love my 4 colour pen, no probs with it and only cost 280 yen. Great for English teachers (or anyone who uses a pen a lot, really). So, no thanks.
