    Mine arrived today and I am really pleased with it. Will make a great present for a fraction of the RRP.

    I thought the deal was one day only tho :confused:.

    Guys/Galls, seriously, don't give a pen for a Christmas present. It's really, (and I mean REALLY), cr*p to receive one. It's possibly the worst thing you can give, even below socks.

    I think it depends who they are, and what they do. When I was a sales rep it was important to have some reasonably smart pens to hand, and a lot of people who do office jobs will appreciate a nice pen.

    Incidentally it is not allowed to have links in your signature, AFAIK.
