I enjoyed samples of J. Herbin's Cacao du Bresil and R & K Verdigris, bottles of each should arrive next week!

Than I added to the cart GvFC heritage Violet cartridges... just out of curiosity on the colour.

I just ordered Iroshizuku on rakuten to be shipped from Japan to India. 3 x 15 ml Tsuki-yo, Take Sumi, and Tsukushi. Can't wait to get my hands on them.

Last year, I was given two, half bottles of Thornton ink -- one blue & one black. I like the blue best.

Twelve bottles of Thornton Blue, free shipping, are on the way. $21.52 . At $1.79 per bottle, it's great ! I can't mail a bottle for that price.

Not in the mail, but just picked up a bottle of Diamine Ancient Copper locally. This place has J Herbin, Diamine, Montblanc, Waterman and Graf von Faber Castell. Had some LE MB inks.

Hooray! A local store!

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

A quart bottle (!!!) of Sanford's blue/black about 2/3 full. Snagged off of Ebay shortly after I grabbed a 16oz bottle of Signet blue/black which arrived yesterday 100% full and which turns out to be a very nice, still useable ink. I have my fingers crossed the Sanford's will also still be good.

Received 3 x 15 ml Iroshizuku today through rakuten to Bangalore, India. What fantastic packaging! Just using Take Sumi now. Feels good.

This thread is fun to go through to see ink trend changes over the past seven years.

I haven't ordered this much ink in a long while.
