I just found this, Not too sure how I found it but find it I did.

Christmas Promtion PKSL-3 Slimline Gold Twist Pen Kit - Strongink Pen Kits

Has anyone used them before and are the kits the same as other kits out there?

They seem to be legit and I was wondering if the kits are the same as what many of those good folk on eBay are selling?

$0.33 per kit ($0.99 for the 3) does seem to be very cheap as does everything else on the site, only thing is, I can't find postage costs or if a minimum order applies. Oh well I can but dream :praying:

Well spotted Garno, they'll work out at about £0.88 each& shipping should not be too dear, I'd be tempted ..... but - to me - they are of unknown quality, they may well be 1st class or perhaps not. Taylors sell their slimline kits at £18.99 for 10 so £1.90 each, so I think - is it worth the risk - especially as Taylors give a very good service Cheers :thumbs:

I would be very cautious. There have been numerous examples of poor quality slimlines failing over the years. Why take the risk? It takes time to build a reputation as a maker of quality pens, it takes seconds to loose it. I would stick to reputable suppliers.
