Can you help me to restock my supply of green inked, pocket-sized pens?
A couple years ago I bought a big box of GREEN Pilot G2 Minis, and I'm almost out. It seems that I can only buy the pen I love in a variety pack of colors.
Item No: G2S7-FRN-BC
UPC No: 31213
I would like to bulk order one of the following in green ink:
1. The actual pen in question
2. Ink refills that will fit said pens
3. an acceptable pocket-sized substitute (I've tried the generic form of minis you find at WalMart - they suck)
My web-searching suggests that Im going to need to switch pens, so recommendations are welcome

GREEN PEN PALS!
I use the Pilot G2s (not minis) in green as well and it's a bitch to find an all-green package. I've had reasonably good luck at overstock.com but it's a little hit and miss, and I don't know how they are on minis. Sometimes they have mine, sometimes they don't.
In the alternative, I'd call or e-mail the manufacturer. They're often pleased to supply customers who are fans with their particular desires.

what did you, like, google, jannw? Different search terms turn up different results for different people in different locations, but it's nice to know what terms you used (and where you are) so we all can improve our google foo.

Response by poster: We got it!
+ The pen is rebranded as "Pilot G2 XS" in the UK and does sell in green.
+ Seem to be cheapest here: http://pukkapens.com/products.php?cat=41
+ UK stores have a $10 ship to U.S. cost.
@fozzie33 Unfortunately the link you provided is for full-size refills, not the minis
@Eyebrows McGee No luck on Overstock, and I sent Pilot an e-mail. Good ideas! Nice to meet another green ink user.
@jannw Didn't see that in my search results, thanks.
If I see the pens selling in the U.S., I'll post here.
