Had to pick between a $2 Sharpie and a $5 paint pen for labeling storage bins in my garage last week

Went with the Sharpie. Thought it would be fine. Two days later the labels are fading already on the plastic bins. The paint pen might've been overkill but at least it'd still be readable. Should I just bite the bullet and redo everything with the paint pen? Has anyone else had Sharpies fail on plastic?
