Decent Deal On Pen Storage.

[dneal]

Just bought one of these on the evil bay. If it's built like my cigar humidors (wood veneer over MDF), I'll be quite happy with it. They've got even bigger ones (9 drawer and over 100 pen capacity). I'm breaking my rule about not having more pens than fit in cases, and making an exception and new rule. No pens that exceed the capacity of this box. Hopefully this will keep me around the 40 pen range... (lol, yeah right).

Nice case

 

Thanks for sharing look like some good prices from this vendor.

Those like nice and at a very nice price! Sadly, they do not lock.

Looks really nice, I think that's a great price as well! Let us know how you like it when you get it.

What good is a lock on one of these? Seriously. If I meant to steal your pen, I would just grab the whole box and take em' all. I suppose a lock would stop the "opportunistic" type of thief if this case were in a public place like an office.

Keep kids from playing with your pens?

I received the case today, and I'll do a review or something this weekend. A quick summary though: It's worth the 79 euros I paid, but I don't know if I would have bought it for 179.

 

It's definitely MDF (which I'm ok with for the price), with wood veneer. The black portions are painted, and it's a mediocre job. The "glass" is plexi, and pretty thin. On a more positive note, the lining is nice and reminds me of the lining in a Montblanc box. The slots are plenty big, and a 149 or Nakaya NeoStandard easily fits (with room to spare).

 

For something to sit on the shelf or credenza and hold your pens, it's more than suitable. It seems well made and looks nice (as long as you don't get close and scrutinize it.

 

If I knew then what I know now, I'd buy it again at the price I paid. Like I said above, I'm not sure it's worth the full "buy it now" price and I can think of other options for 179 euros. Could be that they're auctioning seconds or blemished samples, and the full price ones are nicer. I doubt it though.
