I recently got a package of these Sharpie markers to try out. I found these at Hobby Lobby and the pack of 3 cost $6.99. The bronze color kinda seemed almost dried out when I first tested it, it would draw a little then fizzle out, but once I kept using it it started working fine like the others. I'm thinking maybe the ink just wasn't quite flowing through the tip yet, but now that it's started it works fine. All of the colors are beautiful the silver and gold are actually very neutral, but the bronze (my favorite) is a shimmery warm almost rose gold color. The gold isn't a classic yellow gold like on jewelry, it almost has a hit of grey to it, but the silver is a classic sterling sliver color, it is very light and not dark at all. The smell to these are different from your classic sharpie stench but not worse, just different (and no I'm not a druggie, I've just lost a few brain cells in art more than once) I can't say anything about how long they last because I haven't had them long enough but they seem to have the same amount of use as regular sharpies. Overall I like these and would buy them again without hesitation.
This is not the exact pack I got but pretty close on Amazon.
