I have a question for the people that are experiencing dry markers--Are the sets you are receiving the NEXT GeENERATION markers?

I bought the old type (because they were on sale) and have had NO problem with them drying out. My understanding is that the new ones had altered caps because there had been complaints from people who found it difficult to remove the old caps (I have not).

The ones I received had very water down color it hardly worked on dry erase board. Maybe try window markers and problem a different brand

I am the product owner. These do not come with a marker. However, at the time of this answer, we have shipped our first Chalky Talky brand markers to begin selling on Amazon.

This did happen to me,,,, but never had purchased such a large set and class began the next morning. After a couple of weeks I mentioned to my instructor that I seemed to have "doubles" of many of the blues, she advised rechecking. I printed a color list from Prismacolor and realized that I had received an extra tray of the blues and none of the greys. I contacted Amazon, they sent me a new set and took back the other. My advice when you order, make sure a tray of each color group is included (as shown in the the photo on order page)...no worries since Amazon is quick to correct mistakes.

Hmm I will check with my husband and let you know. I will say we were a lil disappointed in the set.

They did not work well for me. Printer kept saying low on ink and actually did run out rather quickly. Seems like one of the colors was dry as in no ink. I threw them all away and bought HP ink.

It depends on the color. Some of the colors I got are creamy and some are dry.

No. The item looks fun but the markers are really faint. I have been looking for different darker colors but have been unsuccessful.

We don't carry any replacement markers. You may be able to contact the manufacturer and request replacement markers.

I'll keep my eye open and let you all know. I tried using different crayola markers from color explosion and they don't work very well. So if you have those try it out until you get the refills. Has anyone out there tried other markers or know where to purchase the refills.....

U get one pack of 10 markers. Original price was way too expensive I think they added one zero too much.

My strips are very dry as well and do not seem to be working. I have used whitestrips beforeand they were not dry like these at all. I feel something is definitely wrong with these strips.

No. The package I received was sealed and did NOT contain a yellow dry erase marker. :(

I haven't done so, but it says any gel markers will work. Ours are still going strong. :-)

I have not had any issues... but quality dry erase markers are used... have not tried to lower quality dry erase markers...

I bought two of these and the pens were completely dried out and unusable in both. I like the labels though. I use a Sharpie pen. Their eraser is OK.

It is similar; however, I believe you will experience "ghosting" on this board. I would do a little research and buy the board designed for dry markers. It will probably save you a headache in the long run.
