I have a bottle of Iroshizuku Chiku-Rin that I've only made 1-2 fills from and am not crazy about it. I'm willing to trade it for another similar bottle. PM me if interested. Specifically would like another Iroshizuku ink, but I'm also interested in Roher & Klingner inks. Thanks!

[Lovely_Pen]

I'm really interested in the Sailor Jentle Four Seasons line, but I can't find an online retailer that sells samples...so I'm hoping that there's some *kind* soul out there who would be willing to trade (or even gift) a small sample of any of the following:

 

Sailor Jentle Wishlist:

• Tokiwa-matsu (Pine Green)
• Miruai (Seaweed Indigo-Dark Blue Green)
• Oku-yama (Remote Mountain Burgundy)

Alternatively, I also have a whole bottle of Pelikan Blue-Black which I would be happy to trade for a bottle of any of the above.

 

 

 

Sample Vials to Trade:

• Private Reserve: Ebony Purple
• Noodler's: Zhivago
• Waterman: Inspired Blue
• De Atramentis: Arthur Conan Doyle, Charles Dickens, & Sherlock Holmes

[Chudgins50]

I would rather trade more than one ink at a time to justify postage. The inks that I have are:

• Golden-Brown

I am interested in just about any color but am really interested in really saturated vibrant colors and more of the Iroshizuku line of inks.

[samiraad]

I am new to FPN, and am still trying to figure out the site...

This ink sample exchange is a great idea.

 

 

Inks I have:

J. Herbin Poussiere de Lune (dusty purple)

 

Montblanc

Waterman Tender Purple (I have two bottles of this...)

(I also have some black cartridges)

___

 

I am interested in trying out some greens, blues, browns, and dark purples, but I am open to any others.

I'd especially like to try any Pilot-Iroshizuku inks.

So, I'm particularly after ones that are not as readily availible: L' Artisan Pastellier, Noodler's exclusives and non-US market inks, KWZI, Sailor exclusives (Bung Box, Kingdom Note, Kobe, etc), Akkerman, Diamine collection inks, Levenger, Toucan, etc.

[Miyuki]

Okay, I'm finally making an account for this forum and I'm eager to trade inks. I have 5mL vials. They're a lot like the Goulet Pens ones.

 

I'm eager for pretty much any ink, but I'm most interested in European inks. Color-wise, I am interested in reds, blues, greens, and blacks. But as said, I'm interested in many things.

 

I have (and am willing to trade)

 

Wancher Matcha Green

Wancher Asuka Brown (this writes like a really dark purple/magenta)

Wancher Imari Blue

Wancher Tenmoku Black

Wancher Ebine Violet (this is pretty magenta)

Wancher Chocolate Brown (this one is actually brown)

 

Noodlers Baystate Concord Grape

Noodlers Golden Brown

Noodlers Red Black

Noodlers Tienanmen

Noodlers Black Swan in Australian Roses

 

Private Reserve Ebony Blue

Windsor & Newton Calligraphy Ink Blue Black

 

Sailor Jentle Ink Miruai

 

I'm happy to give up to 5mL of all of them except the Sailor. I also have a few Higgins inks that I can trade if anyone is curious about how they write in pens. Please PM me if you're interested.

[Inky.Fingers]

how would one take a sample and send it? test tubes? or syringes?

[StrawberryJam]

how would one take a sample and send it? test tubes? or syringes?

 

I think most people use a syringe to extract out of the main bottle into the 5ml transport vials with the plastic caps (secured in a ziplock bag).
