Just in case no one was aware, if you go directly to Ohuhu's website, you can order refills and replacement markers. I use BR3 A LOT. The tip was just not doing well, even after changing it out so instead of ordering the refill and new tip, I just bought a pen. A little over $2. So not bad!

I was happy to see they now have refills although why would you buy a refill for almost twice the cost as a new marker, makes no sense. I didn’t know they sold their markers individually so thanks for pointing me over to their site. Now I can fill in some blank spots in my set.

I haven't looked at them but I wonder if you can refill multiple times (at least 2x) with the refill. |

That will teach me to read the full description. |

Thrilled about this! I assume the refill will do several refills (like copics) and worth the cost that way, plus saving the plastic from the landfill.
Also the single markers - YES - I have a few gaps and would like them.
ETA: the price is steeper than I would expect given how cheap I can get the markers on amazon in a set. Today there is a 60 set on for $31 CANADIAN. 50 cents/marker! Of course, I have all those. But the single markers from ohuhu are $4 (CDN) each. Hmph.

I have been eyeing these for a long time. Which style do you recommend, the brush and chisel, or the chisel and fine tip? I would primarily be using them to colour stamped images.

I recolour alpha stickers/thickers all the time with the chisel tip. I also use the chisel tip when I'm matting a card or photo and use white card stock then just custom colour the edge. Sometimes I wish I had the fine nib. But not often! |

Thanks pantsonfire and kitbop! My boyfriend is feeling under the weather and I suspect has not done his shopping for me. This will be an easy suggestion. I have been wondering for awhile if they are any good. |

I have the fine tip/chisel - I rarely use the chisel except for re-colouring alphas occasionally. I'm not personally good at using a brush tip which is why I went with fine tip - for me, it gives me more control. |
