What People are Saying…
“I have some old ball point pens from my grandfather’s business. Pre-1980 that I was pleased to find refills for through this company. They fit and work perfectly. Hope they continue to sell for years to come in hope my children can use the same pen personally or in business as I have. Very Grateful.”

“I’m more than pleased with my refills! The X-10 refill fits my Skilcraft U. S. Government pen perfectly, and with a slight trim, the X-20 refill fits my Field Notes branded Bic Clic. I’m impressed with how well both refills write – better, I think, than the originals that came with both pens”

“I am writing to express my compete satisfaction with a bulk order of the Sound Feelings vintage advertising click pens. Periodically over the past 20 years, our non-profit has ordered batches of pens with our logo. The pens have always been made in China, and while they often look OK, they never really provided satisfaction as pens–ink flow was often sporadic, and life-span short. We recently ordered 250 vintage click pens from Howard, and we are delighted with them. He worked with us on getting our logo graphics perfectly onto the pen, so they look terrific. They are also great pens! They are a pleasure to write with, and we are pleased that we can get refills as necessary. Best of all, they are made in the USA. Howard is a pleasure to work with. His dedication to quality products and responsive customer service is so rare today, it almost qualifies as an eccentricity. We will be ordering more pens!”

“The solution of the extender piece….is perfect! I too am very proud and pleased of your efforts and ‘dazzling’ customer service in making the time and putting in a lot of effort to design. The connector and an extender tube that can easily be cut to length…in a word…Wow! This is great! A secure connector that will snugly fit the existing refill tube products offered, both the X-10 and X-20. So easy too, just snap into place to then add the customizable length extender tube.”

“I found an old pen of a company that I worked for and loved. Of course the ink dried out and it did not write. I searched stores and then took to the internet when lo and behold I found Howard Richman and his many companies. They had the refill and I ordered some in fact I placed 2 orders by mistake….gave the wrong billing address and just kept doing things wrong. Howard took the time to call me share my miscues and then via email corrected everything! Four days later my refills were in my mailbox and now I can use the pen from the 80’s all over again!! Thank you Howard Richman for your customer service and quality goods. It has been my pleasure!!”

“I was looking for a refill for an old Papermate pen (no $ value but sentimental) and came across your site and learned more about pens than I’ll ever need to know. Thank you, got my x-10 refills and they fit, work and write perfectly. They arrived fast and well packed. Thank you again. Great product, great service.”

“I had a Hoffman Richter Tactical Pen which I could not use because the spring was missing. I determined that the refill was a Parker QuinkFlow Ink Refill for Ballpoint Pens, Medium Point, Black and contacted Parker Pens to ask if I could purchase a spring that would work in their pens. Parker Pen Company referred me to www.ballpoint-pen-springs.com and there I learned more about springs than I had ever imagined and was able to order an appropriate spring (The BPS4). The order was shipped the same day I ordered it and arrived really quickly! It worked perfectly in the pen I had purchased it for and made it possible to use that pen. If I had not learned of this company I would have never been able to use this pen again! Now if ever I need another pen spring I know exactly where to go to find what I need!”
