We like Sharpie pens. Pens might not be the most exciting things in the world but it’s surprisingly pleasurable to have a Sharpie pen in your desk, workshop or toolbox. Permanent marker pens that just work well.
Being who we are, we thought we’d stock Sharpie pens at a good price so you can enjoy them too!

PS My favourites are the mini ones.
We’ve decided, for now, to make a permanent fixture of the Wild Wednesday Wipe-Out 24-hour sales. People seem to like them!
We’re making it more obvious on the web site about the mechanics of the sales, although we still get queries on a Tuesday(!) asking why the sale isn’t yet underway. To be fair, some of the enquirers have just been confused about what day of the week it was that day and have been quite content once their minor oversight has been pointed out.
Such was the level of interest in last Wednesday’s sale we had problems with the web server keeping track of stock. There were so many people checking out so fast that one item in particular oversold in around 5 minutes by double the stock we had waiting (and we had quite a few). All customers who foiled the stock control were offered free upgrades to an alternative frame. Contrary to one of the original ideas, this overselling risk means we can no longer clear the most limited stock lines this way!
Hopefully future sales will run without any disappointment (we know that there are certainly a lot of happy shoppers each time) and we’d love to hear more feedback. Shopping should be fun
