Ballpoint or Marker? Which One Do You Prefer??
I have a question about using ballpoint or marker to have signature on a baseball.
Which one could be kept on the sweetspot for longer time?
I don't want the signatures fade from the lights.
Thanks for your opinions!

The ONLY Ballpoint Pen I will use - I've been using them exclusively for almost 10 years now and have as yet to have a signature fade:
Bic Velocity 1.0
Just my personal preference.

Marker usually ends up fading and can over time also become a big blob

Some examples from my collection done with BiC Velocity 1.0 Blue:
Signed 2002
Signed 2004
Signed 2009
The Pujols still looks as bright as the Berkman which was signed 7 years later!!!

I'm not sure about how long a signature takes to fade in lights or which would fade faster. I personally prefer a bic medium point pen for my OMLB signatures.
