Put your dry erase markers in the holder basket thing CAP DOWN. jfc, the amount ruined, dried out markers could probably fill a landfill

If this is the case, they should put a ring around the base with what color the markers are. As long as the lid is the main indicator of color, people will put them lid up. Is lying down ok, or does that ruin them too?

Yeah, one of the biggest selling brands is hopeless for this. I have to colour the base of each one.

It's like the company wants the marker to dry out and for me to go buy more.

! waaaaait a minute!

Never put some thought into that, don't usually deal with dry erase markers, but it makes total sense!
