3 Papermate PhD Assorted 0.5mm Mechanical Pencils $4.99 w/ Free Shipping eBay Daily Deal

Nice!!

Sanford Titanium is the one I've been using since 11th grade. That would be 10+ years ago. I think it combines a narrower, straighter pencil with most of what the phD offers.

Quote from buzhaker : They are too thick and uncomfortable, I use Zebra M-301 - it's great!

That's what she said.

The whole papermate vs zebra aside, this isn't even the best price on these on ebay! If you really want papermate, buy the auction for 5 for $5.99 instead [ebay.com]. lol, my have the standards for FP status dropped low these days ...

Quote from PooMBA : How old are you?

It was barely funny when it was contemporary (right after HP deal), and not a total no sequitor, like it is now.

The bad thing about the virtual world is that, at least in the real world if this person said this "joke" in a crowded room, the deafening silence would be immediate& direct negative feedback. Here, a few go on repeating it ad naseum, literally unaware that everyone else stopped laughing at it a long time ago.

But, at least SD gave us the ignore user function now for these situations ...

lol, and then when I hit post, I see this here too now. See above.

Quote from masterazn4 : the zebra M-402's are better im still using the one from 12 years ago

I agree. I have been using the same pair for 7 years now. IMHO, the best pencil I have ever written with.

I used these pencils (and the pens) in college and they were a lot more comfortable than standard-diameter pens or pencils. I have small hands and my hands would hurt a lot less when taking notes for hours every day, so they would definitely be a lot more ergonomic for those with big man-hands as well.

we're 12 and u?

In for one pack of 6. Thanks.

Take notice this is 0.5mm lead. For someone with a heavy hand like myself, I break the tip every time I put the pencil on the paper. I need minimum 0.7mm. Just an fyi

6-pack for $6 is a far better deal.

It is 6 for $10 on Amazon, same as 3 for $5.

0.5mm lead breaks easily for those who uses heavier stroke, would much prefer 0.7mm

that's what he said.

6 Papermate PhD Indigo Blue 0.5mm Mechanical Pencils for $6

super deal

This is for the Papermate PhD, not the PhD Ultra which is newer and doesn't have the rubbery bottom grip. I personally find the PhD Ultra to be better to use, especially when writing for long periods.
