Hi guys, So I'm the newbie Pelikan owner who bought a Souveran M600 with an M nib from Amazon Global UK because the price was great and everyone in this forum raved about how awesome the M600 is (I'm coming over from being a Montblanc owner, be nice). Problem is this: my handwriting is small and the M nib is waaaaay too wet even using Pelikan's 4001 royal blue and Montblanc's midnight blue ink. So I reached out to Chartpak to do a nib exchange and lo and behold, they're not going to honor a nib exchange on a pen purchased outside of the US, which makes me wonder what they do about Americans who buy pens abroad and then come home, but whatever . . . . At this point, the pen is driving me a bit nuts because while I do like it, the M nib is practically unusable for me. What are my options at this point? Nibmeister and a grind? Purchase a new F nib and be bitter? I really wanted to fall in love with Pelikan but now, not so much (I also bought a P205 which I returned because it was super scratchy) UGH. Shawnee
