Isopropyl alcohol will remover magic marker ink. There are many other products that will also, but with all of them you have to be aware that it can remove some of the color of colored plastics also. Therefore, in getting rid of the ink, you can wind up with a light spot that looks almost as bad. Experiment with the finish first on an out of sight spot before trying it on a conspicuous spot.

Try hair spray! I know from experience that it will get ink off leather and plastic. Maybe it'll treat Magic Marker marks too. Spray a little on the mark, wait a few seconds, and then rub gently with a cloth.

If none of the other suggestions work then try a belt sander.

Use another magic marker. When you put marker on old markings it makes it wet again and can be wiped off easily.

When all else fails I use Easy Off BAM.
I also use the Mr Clean Magic Eraser but sometimes it scratches the surface.

Nintendo games have warning not to use alchol on the games especially around the part inside the end. I am not sure you can get magic marker off of them but don't put directly on the game put on rag so what ever you use doesn't get into the major works. Let us know if it does come off.

Congress needs to pass a law to make it a hanging offense for any yard sale or swap meet vendor to mark a price on any piece of merchandise with a magic marker.

Or stick stickers on a leather finish- ruined!
Or leave their stuff uncovered and let it rain on perfectly--- use to be good items. & certain things warp in the hot sun.
