OK,
Silly question..... I have a pen that I got at NC. You know, the one with the floating "more" icons inside of it? Well, it ran out of ink yesterday and I cannot for the life of me figure out how to open this pen up and replace the ink.:confused:

Has anyone else figured this out yet? I'm hoping that this pen is not a goner now that the ink has dried up! I get so many compliments from this pen!

anyone? LOL I'm afraid I will break this pen if I pull it apart incorrectly.
 
I'm no help. Mine broke pretty much right away and I wasn't trying to take it apart.

wait... I'm talkin about one I had that twisted with different colored dots on it. I haven't seen the one you are talking about in a while. I'll have to look.

this one is from NC last July. It has the floating $, Heart, clock and recognition symbols inside of it. It's lime green.
 
mine never worked and i couldn't figure out how to open it up either.
 
Mine ran out of ink about a month ago. I didn't even try to replace the ink, just tossed it.
