These are pretty amazing for a sub $10 pen. You have to shake them a bit to get the ink flowing after they sit a couple of days. But they write well and I’m happy with them so far.

I bought a Platinum Preppy in Black with an EF nib, and it's great! It writes wonderful, thin lines that work well with my small handwriting, and it's very smooth. The price is also EXTREMELY reasonable for a pen that writes so nicely, so I completely understand why many people suggest this as an entry pen. It's astounding.
My only gripe might be that the resin/plastic body doesn't feel very sturdy. With a pen at this cost, I'd want to be able to throw it in my pen pouch and carry it with me, but I don't feel confident that it would survive. The build just doesn't feel extremely strong, and I'm worried about it breaking and then leaking ink everywhere.
Otherwise, I really have to praise the design. The spring-loaded mechanism in the cap is ingenious since it promotes longevity in the ink, and it's a lightweight pen whose nib just skates delicately over surfaces. I can see myself buying a few more of these (for inking with my everyday colors) because they work beautifully and feel dependable at an incredible price point.

I love these pens! For an inexpensive fountain pen, it's the best! They are comfortable to write with, come in lots of fun colors and very lightweight. I especially like the fine nib (.03). They round out my collection of fountain pens, from inexpensive to expensive.

A fantastic fountain pen, whether you're a beginner or not. I typically remove the logos on these pens by buffing with Nevr-Dull cotton wadding. They offer a great experience and are inexpensive enough to give to folks who are interested in using fountain pens but are 'afraid'. It makes the whole world of fountain pens seem more approachable.

Preppys writes great, are inexpensive, can be easily converted to eyedroppers for a massive ink capacity. Need I say more?
