Low Cost Metal Promotional Pens - Introducing 5 of the Best

Often, when people think of promotional metal pens they assume they must be expensive. This is not always the case! There are hundreds of good quality metal gift pens on the market that can be purchased for less than £5.00 each and they look and write like name brand pens that are in a much higher price bracket. Generic metal pens have all the style the name brands do but you pay for the quality of the pen and not the name. Here I would like to introduce five of my favourites. The names may vary from country to country but they are available worldwide so do a search, match up the pictures if needed and check these top quality writing instruments out for yourself.

When I say check metal pens out for yourself, I mean it! There are some real bargains out there but there are also a lot of pens that are best left in the Chinese factories from whence they came. I always recommend trying before you buy. If you like writing with your pen of choice, chances are your customers will too. A nice writing pen is a used pen and used promotional pens sell your brand where pens at the back of your customers' desk drawers fail to do so.

So here they are! I really like these 'generic' pens and hope you will like them as well.

The DaVinci Range: These metal pens look fantastic. They are all supplied in elegant luxury gift boxes that make the gifts even more special. Pens in the range that you should look out for are the Lucerne Rollerball, the Lucerne Fountain Pen, The MBB01 Ball pen, The MBR01 Rollerball, The TNB01 Ball pen, and The GRS01 Ballpen. OK, the names may be a bit boring but the pens are a dream to write with and excellent value for money!

The Ambassador Rollerball: The first time I wrote with this pen I new it would be a best seller. It features a high quality German made precision black ink refill. It is supplied as standard in a good quality gift box and there is ample print area for your logo and details of 30mm x 25mm. It is available in silver, red, black and navy.

The LPC 016 Ballpen: Someday I am going to take these generic pens and give them the names they deserve. Any suggestions? This pen has a very low price tag of around £1.50 each! It does not come with a gift box but it will fit into most so I strongly recommend adding this to your order. Gift pens that are presented in a box look much more expensive than they really are. The ballpen can be printed or engraved and it is available in silver, red, navy and black.

The Mountbatten Ballpen: A metal pen for under a pound! This pen will meet all your expectations and more. It is available in red, green, silver and black with a lacquer finish and chrome trim. The push-button black ink refill pen is attractive and deserving of some sort of packaging which it is not supplied with as standard. With such a low price tag you can add the gift boxes and give your customers a pen they will truly enjoy writing with.

The Parsifal Ballpen: This twist action pen is only available in one colour, black. It features a unique retractable mechanism and chrome plated metal trim as standard. You will need to be a bit creative with your design as the print area is small at 20mm x 20mm but what it lacks in print area in makes up in quality. Again, there is no gift box as standard here, so add one for the best results.
