Iight, I know this guild is DEAD, but I figure someone'll see this eventually, xD.
I bought three prismacolors about a week back and they're practically ******** dead now. Like, they still cover s**t, but it fades a lot. I usually settle with this set of $7.00 thin tip markers just because you get like 35 for a good price, even if it can take hell of a long time to fill s**t.
I only did a couple pictures with my purple prismacolor marker (and some tags which came out pretty sick), none of which used alot of marker. I actually used the yellow one most and it's still kicking.
So, maybe the cap was loose and it dried the tip a little bit, or was this one perhaps just low on ink..Anyone else have this happen to them?

Yeah prismas dry fast as ********. I make sure I keep mine all capped and away from heat sources like lamps. I have like over 200 hundred prismas and about 20 decocolors. It's best to have a variety of stuff. BTW man you should think about racking, it's a goddamn recession. Though I understand if your morals stop you, I go to the Office Max next to my crib and rack the big box they hook the alarm on. It's easy to take it though just get a knife and cut the box on the bottom, take the two small boxes out from the large one and voila a free 100+ of prismas.

Lmao, Niice. I've seen the big packs of them here at Michaels (Art&Craft store), and I'm tempted. I'd rather not, but I may eventually, if I'm really wanting some markers. My buddy would probably do it for me anyways (I have morales, but I'm also a p***y, lol). He enjoys stealing s**t for no damn reason. xP
I bet if I had a trench coat I could stack pretty easy...damn things are impossible to find! >.<
Oh yeah..How the hell do you keep them from noticing you have two boxes of markers stashed under your shirt? Wouldn't that be just a liiitle obvious?

one thing that's good for little marker tags are those broad-ended t-shirt markers. no one ever knows that they're water and soap soluble and people try just covering it up because they assume it's permanent. it won't wash off in the rain after a few days of the sun burning it onto whatever surface.

they come in little boxes and you can just open them and take one out. the brand is "tee juice" and you could always refill them with other ink. they're like big squeeze markers.
