Do you have any inks that you wanted to buy after reading great reviews that turned out less exciting than expected?

My biggest disappointment is Diamine Skull & Roses. After seeing swatches online I expected a blue ink with a visible red sheen. Unfortunately the sheen is just not there at all, it looks like an average dark blue ink, not even blurple. I'm glad I've only bought the 30 ml bottle.

My very first ink I brought was this. The noodlers polar green ink. It feathered like nothing else even on good paper sometimes... But the color is still gorgeous to me. But as it stands I'm unable to use it
