I never needed to buy refills as I had returned the stylus as they were both defected.

I don't think there are refills that will fit. I asked the vendor and they "were thinking about" offering them.In any event, most of the refills I see at Office Max cost more than the pen-stylus.These are much less expensive and work quite well.

I have used a Cross converter not specified for the Cross model I have. I have three different Cross fountain pens with converters and they all work far better tha Parkers and Sheaffers. If I were you I would give any of the many converters that resemble the one pictured--the same type as in my Cross pens.

I also had this issue. I have a TON of Pilot G-2 pens (the pens that the refill with the stylus fits) and I simply took one of their springs out and put it in my pen. Works like a charm. No more play or travel in the ink cartridge....

Well it's a pen/stylus, not that it degrades the quality of the product but it bothered me a bit that the ink ran out so fast and i don't know how to refill it.

some times the printer wont recognize a refiled cartridge. there is a chance that you may have caused damage to the contact strip. you have to be very careful when refilling the cartridge ,you should find some noe that know how to fill them to show you.

No, I tried but TS won't replace the incompatible cartridges bought four months ago with the printer because it's now past their 90-day return policy. I didn't discover the problem until yesterday when the first OEM cartridge ran out of ink. I guess they expected me to sacrifice the OEM cartridge when I received the printer to be sure their TS cartridge worked.

The ink could be replaced. I don't know if the rubber tip could be replaced because it has a hole in the middle where the tip of the ink pen comes through. They're great pens, especially for the price. They write very well.

The pen is; the refill is not. WONDERFUL pen!!!!! Boyfriend got it from me Christmas 2013; got him a refill Christmas 2014; STILL using ink that was in the pen when he got it; HAVEN'T had to open the refill YET!!!

It doesn't leak for me if I am careful to remove the little pull-off tab first. Then turn the cartridge over and twist off the cap over the ink. I suppose that, if you see excess ink when you twist off the cap, you might want to have a paper towel available to blot the excess ink (but this has not happened to me so long as I remove the little pull-off tab first). I confess that I, uh, didn't read the instructions the first time I put in one of these cartridges - I removed the twist off portion first - and it leaked. Now I am careful to follow the instructions about what to remove first when installing a new cartridge.

I haven't had any leaking cartridges so far.I have gotten ink on my fingers by picking up too many used up cartridges at a time, but it wears off pretty fast.I've gotten to where I change one cartridge at a time and dispose of the used one first.

Yes, the cartridge is refillable. You need to drill a hole on the cartridge follow the instructions in the pack. It is a little difficult to do that. And I recommend that you to drill the hole a little larger so that it would be easier for you to inject ink into the cartridge without overflowing.

I found a refill that works, although it has to be modified just a bit. The Penatia by Parker. It fits with the cap on and writes great. BUT you have to put a bit of wadded up paper (or whatever filler you want) in the tube. If you just put it in with the spring in there it will work, but have a springiness to it when you write. Others may find that okay, but I changed it. Works great now and was a 30 second fix. Well worth it for this great pen (especially after trying many others)!

Yes you can get a replacement stylus, but I have found them to be quite expensive. Almost as pricey as a new cartridge.

I have not used any of those cartridges as of this time, and I certainly hope that I never have to look for an answer to the leaking ink problem that you have encountered. I wish you luck on your question, Patrick.

Yes, the stylus is replaceable. The cartridge is the Rega Carbon with an elliptical stylus, Gene Rubin

If the ink won't flow, you can use ink converter that comes already with the pen.It is better than the ink cartridges.

Hey Caitie. I rarely use the pen so the ink hasn't dried up yet. I am sorry. Good luck and let me know if you find any replacements.
