You can get a rOtring 600 on amazon for $12.88 right now, and a rOtring 800 for ~$24. Am I missing something here?

srirachoI thought the same thing. I must be missing something because they are almost half the price on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/rOtring-Retractable-Mechanical-Pencil-1904447/dp/B00AZWNS84/ref=asc_df_B00AZWNS84/?tag=bingshoppinga-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid={creative}&hvpos={adposition}&hvnetw=o&hvrand={random}&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=e&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl={devicemodel}&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=&hvtargid=pla-4583589101884300&psc=1

srirachoYes. However, the 800+, the pen that this drop starts with, is $59 on Amazon. It does sometimes drop to $38 on Amazon.

TherocI have an 800 as well, with no stylus. And it's awesome, but I still love my 600 more. The 800 is best for people who carry it around a lot though.

blakstealthEw. Who wants to write with a .7 when there's a .5 option anyway? 😋

Kavik.7mm is my baguette et buerre.

blakstealth😁 To each his own, I've just always loved me a .5
And bonus, it's what's made to fit in the Incra T-rule and protractor that I use for a lot of projects

KavikAbsolutely. .7mm was what was available to me throughout my time in school and beyond, so I just stuck with that. I do own some .5mm pencils, though, and they're fine.

JenAnthAre there any chances of those being fake (depending on the seller)?

blakstealthI just got mine from Amazon today.
They look legit, appears to be sold by rotring if you look at the link

KavikYeah, I purchased some off Amazon as well (Rapid Pro Pen, 600 .7mm, and Rapid Pro pencil .7mm) and they all seemed legit.
At this moment, I can say that Drop has the better prices for the 800/800+ in .7mm models.
