    Thank you so much, I have this one and it's on another level from the white version! Ink is way better, it's probably the best pen I've used for the price, such good timing.

    • Interesting. I have one, and the ink cartridge is garbage. Scratchy as hell and it skips. Nothing like the ink in the white version (which I rather like).

      • +1

        Hmm, it’s honestly a lot better in my opinion but I guess that might just be me..

        • I think I must have a dud - it's honestly bad enough that I just don't use it. Use the regular white one every day, though.

        • @JMC: might be the paper sometimes.
          It doesn't work that well on recycled paper or trash officeworks lined paper, but works perfectly on reflex white paper for me :/

  • tx. only for 1 unit.

  • +2

    is this good? i bought it anyway lol
    seemed popular in previous deals
    it's the same price as pistons

  • Question- can you get blue ink for these? I've got two white pens, both with black ink. Thanks!

    • No.

      • Bummer. Thanks anyway

  • WHY do a lot of people build a shrine [chep pallet style] to this pen??

    • +1

      Get it and you'll know why.

      • +5

        I got one and I don't know why.
        It is too damp and scratchy and a lot of weight in the end.

    • It's made by Xiaomi.

  • +2

    Is this smart pen? or will this just make me look smart?

  • got 1. thanks op

  • thanks OP.

  • Thanks! Get in quick for this - got the white one recently and it's great!

  • Got 1 Thanks OP

  • finally got one

  • yay ty

  • Total AU conversation came up as $3.45 rather than $3.30. Don't know, all my PayPal purchases turn up higher than usually estimated on OzB deals for some reason. Anyway, thanks OP.

    Edit: Must have been the lucky last then. Damn!

    • +2

      Make sure for any future gearbest purchases, use AUD on the GB website as they offer the best conversion rate at the moment, no need to buy in USD.

      • Will have a look on how to do that on their site now. Ta

        • +3

          Just up the top right of the page is currency options, change USD to AUD and from then on, any purchases made on that browser will be in AUD.

        • @doweyy: Oh! Got it now. Thank you very much for that. It never occurred to me that's how to do the currency conversation while purchasing stuff on GB. I thought it was done on the PayPal window right before finalizing the purchase, and it was always giving me higher conversion. Haha!

        • +1

          @AussieDaddy:

          All good! It didn’t use to be that way, but like a month ago their conversion rates went below the spot rate, so their rates are generally the best at the moment!

    • +3

      Pay in AUD on GearBest & AUD on PayPal = AU $3.30
      Pay in USD on GearBest & USD on PayPal = ~ AU $3.33 From today's MasterCard rates
      Pay in USD on GearBest & AUD on PayPal = AU $3.45

      Never do option 3. Do option 1 or 2, whatever works out cheaper (in this case option 1, Gearbest's USD to AUD exchange rate is lower than the current MasterCard/VISA rate)

      For option 2, you need to change it on PayPal so it doesn't auto convert payment from USD to AUD using their poor rates:

      At checkout when you select your payment method: Select "View currency conversion options" under the exchange rate. Then select "Convert with card provider".

      • +1

        Funny thing is, I tried that last part "View currency conversion options… Convert with card provider", but it was actually higher. It came up like $3.59 AU or something. I'll see if I can figure out how to do on GB site in the future. Thanks

  • Says coupon has expired damn too slow

  • whats so special about this pen?

    • +2

      I can't think of anything, other than it's made by Xiaomi and is relatively cheap.

      It doesn't feel good to write with imo. It's a fine tip, so it's sharp and not smooth.

  • The Code you entered has expired.

  • Ahh missed out nice solid pens though better luck next time would of went well with my white one :)

  • code not working anymore

  • Jesus, expired before I even got the notification email

  • Rep give us more!

      • Isn't this one made of aluminium?

        • Nope, this one is metal :)

        • +2

          @doweyy: Ahhh i got news for you pal….

  • +2

    I've secured us 400 more units for this coupon - get on it!!

    • thanks man, got one

  • what sort of packaging does it come in? anything good enough for a gift (i.e. a box)?

    • +1

      I'm sure this one is very similar as the box for the white version which I own. It's a nice small box that would be very nice as a gift.

  • Can anyone confirm this is the metal one? Bought one anyway, but would be nice to know.

    • Definitely the metal one, I bought it a while back and can confirm it’s a different one to the aluminium.

      • I'm assuming you mean different to the plastic one?

        Thanks

        • Whoops, yep different to that white one! Feels and looks much better in my opinion.

  • Perfect. Thanks OP! Got one. Was dissapointed I wasn't fast enough yesterday!

  • What about the refill ink? How much are they? Comes in blue/black?

    • Only black ink, even the refills are black ink as well.

      • Thanks

  • Genuine Xiaomi Mijia Pen was 0.89C before. How is this a deal?

    • It's a silver version, metal, rather than a white version, plastic.

  • Missed last time.
    Got one now
    Thanks OP
    My first Xiaomi pen

  • Is this for the surface or iPad ?

  • Does it use the same refills/ink as the white version?

    • found out today. no

      • Ah, thanks for letting me know

  • Is this lighter than the original?

  • Thanks.. Not sure why but got one

  • What is this? Anyway, bought.

  • Thanks OP, ordered my first ever pen online. For $3.30, what a steal for something that everyone on here raves about. I have very high expectations for this :-)

  • +1

    Code expired. That's the second time I've tried to purchase using this deal! The first time they just refunded my purchase without saying why?

  • Cheers, got one. Would really like a code on the golden one please op :)

    Just looked at my orders, waiting on 5 items, all ordered last 8 days…. must resist!

  • I think it just expired as I was trying to order :(

  • Forgot to press the place order button LMAO gg

  • Got one, thanks OP!

  • Back in stock.

    • Thanks OP and neil. Nabbed a silver one.

      Total came to $3.30 and scored 2.3c Cashrewards.

  • Does anyone have the link for the ink refills for these metal pens?

    • +1

      I'll have to check again, but it looks like a standard Parker-style refill. It definitely doesn't fit the white mijia pen refills.

      • Cheers mate, and thanks for the coupon.

        • Just checked, it does fit a generic Parker-style refill (i.e. the type of refill you find in a Parker Jotter)

  • Cheers got another one. 24 GB orders in the last 1.5 months. I. Must. Stop.

  • Thanks. Guess I'll get to see what the fuss is all about… in about three months when the pen finally arrives.

    • Well I take that back. My pen arrived today. Pretty fast shipping all things considered.

      Much appreciated!

  • I just bought one, so the code is still working.
    One question: does the refill for white pen also work in the metal pen?

    Thanks.

    • It does not, the gold/silver models have a different refill
