I could send you samples of Diamine Aurora Borealis and ST Dupont Royal Blue, and would like Diamine Safari and Sailor Yamadori, if that works for you. Live in Virginia. Thanks!

Are you still looking to try a nice olive green color? Have you seen Straits Pens Slowpoke Green?

I have a mostly full bottle of it, and would be happy to swap

Yeah, let's swap! Diamine Wagner looks very interesting - I bet it's gorgeous in the 823 Amber. I'll PM you for details.

Is there a preferred way to mail samples in the mail? I'm looking to get some screw cap vials but wasn't sure on packaging and mailing.
