For the price, I tried it out... not bad, but not impressed. Doesn't unseat my current staple which is the Zebra Sarasa Dry X20. They both have bold deep black no smear ink. However, the X20 four small advantages and one big advantage, IMHO.
The small advantages: 1) the barrel is clear so you can see ink consumption / not get stuck with a nearly empty pen (without having to unscrew and check the refill). 2) the barrel has a smooth finish that sticks to the fingers giving better grip for non-writing handling, versus the sharpie's slippery matte finish. 3) the multi-component build quality is better and feels solid, while the unibody sharpie feels cheap. 4) the clicker isn't completely captive and rattles if the pen is shaken, again giving that cheap feel.
The big advantage: The tolerances on the tip are tighter, so there is no click, rattle, or wobble putting pen to paper. Testing four sharpies, one was fine, three-out-of-four would make noise every time the tip hit the page (a subtle but annoying rattle), and one of those three had a slightly wobbling tip.
Still it has great ink so I don't regret buying it, but they won't be replacing my X20 as my go-to. (I was hoping to love them because Costco carries them, they're frequently on sale, and much easier to get than the Sarasa X20)
