Of your specified inks I only have Pelikan Edelstein Smoky Quartz (it was free at the last Pelikan Hub). I'd be happy to send you a sample vial if no one else with more of what you're interested in has it.

 

No need for exchange, "I have enough ink". (Famous last words)

 

Send me a PM if you'd like it.

Hi silverdragonia

 

I am getting small bottles of both De Atramentis Aubergine and Sailor Jentle Shigure this week.

I also have 4 standard short cartridges of the Poussiere de Lune you can have (I absolutely hate this color, lol).

 

I don't have much in the way of dark reds but have Noodlers Ottoman Red and Diamine Ancient Copper I can pull healthy samples if you want.

 

Let me know via PM. There are a couple you have I would be interested in.

 

I'll be using a small box with inks in a plastic baggie wrapped in bubble wrap.

 

Thanks

 

 

This is such a great idea. I would love some pointers on the best way to ship the ink. Do you use padded mailers or a small box? Thanks!

- Noodler's L.E. Boston Brahmin Washable Blue - new and unopened from the Commonwealth Pen Show

- Noodler's Aircorp Blue Black 3oz bottle, 95%+ left - I've realized that I prefer Lamy Petrol to it after all

- Waterman Absolute Brown 50ml, 90%+ left, complete freebie

- Birmingham Pen Co. 30ml Alternator Crimson - did one fill to test, learned it was not my color

- Birmingham Pen Co. 30ml Midnight Blue - did one fill to test, learned it was not my color

I also can now also do up to 5ml of Organics Studio in Walden Pond Blue.

 

Looking for:

  • A dark and deep red, like Diamine Oxblood.
  • A dark and deep purple, like... something purple? Maybe something like the Sailor Deep Purple Black or Montblanc Lavender Purple. I might be interested in trying the J. Herbin 1798 Amethyste de l'Oural.

In exchange, from your list, I'm interested in: Purple Mojo, Fire & Ice, Gummiberry, Prussian Blue, and one other Diamine that is not Ancient Copper.

 

We're expecting winter precip overnight, and a couple of inches of will shut down the town. If you're interested in a trade I can get samples to the post office later this week when we're above freezing again. :lol:

Im willing to trade an 95% full bottle of Noodlers 54th Massachusetts for a bottle red-ish or orange-ish ink. Something along the lines of Diamine oxblood or Noodlers orange, though i'm not too picky on the color or how full the bottle is. Just looking for something a little more interesting to use in my new Pilot Falcon.

 

Now that i have a bottle of HOD to fulfill my space for a bulletproof ink, i lost interest in the color of 54th.
