This is a pretty great deal for 2 bottles of the Diamine Shimmertastic inks. I see them typically at $ 20 USD from most US suppliers... Add the shipping from most vendors and your well over $ 40.00 . I would gladly join the drop, except I already have a bottle of each. Some from a previous drop. They are very nice inks, I have nothing bad to say about them. I haven't put these inks in any of my better pens, so I can't speak to how they perform in those. I had purchased a few boxes of student/art pens for a classroom. I thought I'd try the shimmertastic ink in one because the feed is simple, no fins. The pens are fairly inexpensive and have a simple built in plunger fill. The nib and feed together work excellent with this ink. I have left the ink in these pens for weeks at a time with no problems. No clogging and shows off the shimmer of these inks.... If anyone is interested in the pens, I'll be happy to let you know more about them. These are great inks for greeting cards !

j-e-gI'm so happy to hear you have all the colors as I have a color question for someone!!! I have a sample of both the purple pazzazz and the blue pearl. I love the purple and can see the shimmer really well, while the blue doesn't show up nearly as well. I use a med. nib. I'd like to get a bottle of the purple, but I'm having a hard time deciding what other color. What colors, in your (or anyone else's) opinion, show up with the most shimmer? Thanks!

KimberlyI think they all shimmer very nicely. The gold is very, very sparkly. and I really like the black as well. So, while I say that.... while the green has limited uses, for me, it is really lovely. If you handwrite your holiday cards... gold, red, green are fun. For general letter writing, I like the darker, like black and purples. Just based on my uses. I find them all to perform well.. Consider what you would use them for and which you'd be more likely to use more often :)
