Had the pins are not so good, that would be a big mess here. Pens under an assumed name for sale, as well as vs. far too expensive. the price of the same pins under the correct name, namely Mitsubishi, is absolutely wrong. As Faber Castell it is well aware that her good name is being misused here ??? But as already mentioned, the pins themselves, are good. I have therefore written 3 tests a 2 hours. After the first pin was indeed low, but no mess or smearing. One can thus only hope.
