March Break Moleskine Edition

 

Moleskine large grid reporter notebooks. Free to a good home - you know what they look like. I now use the notebook style. Four (4) in total, 3 still in cellophane. You're welcome to as many as you're likely to use. PM me with your request.

 

That was fun. Gone in >5 min. Thanks to those who PM'd.

Thanks to digitalnative...notepad and journals received in today's mail. The packaging was a nice touch...

[exuberantwriter]

These have been spoken for! Thanks!!!!

 

PIF :

 

Up for grabs are five screw-in ink converters for bottle ink. I bought these with a variety of Jinhao pens; they appear to be standard size.

 

PM me if interested. All five go to first person who contacts me. (They have never been inked; I only use cartridges!)

First Day of Spring Freebies

Duke Crane: A smooth writer, probably a M nib in my estimation. I prefer to post my pens and this one ...well...doesn't.

Thank you so much bradleyblock!

 

To celebrate here is a small pay-it-forward that will hopefully find the right home. It is a set of 12 ivory panel cards with matching envelopes. It's heavy old-stock paper that I am quite fond of. Great size (4-7/8 x 3 1/2) for a thank you note or gift enclosure. U.S. only.

i'm slow when it comes to these:(

Found in an drawer - an unopened packet of 5 Jet Black Sheaffer Cartridges

 

I guess these are about 10+ years old. I don't know anything about Sheaffer cartridges but if it helps they are flat at both ends.

 

The ink inside is still liquid but I have no idea what it would write like!

 

UK only because I'll pay postage (it's that or the bin).

 

PM me with address if you want them.

***CLAIMED*** by kopio in 20 minutes. That's an eternity for this thread -- my Saturday night strategy paid off in letting this sit for more than a millisecond.

 

It may take me a week to ten days to get this out, but I want to make the offer at this time of the week to reward the lonely Saturday night at home crowd.

 

One lot of two pens plus one ink sample. The pens are:

 

1 Italian pen marked VV on the clip. It's a hooded plunger filler that likely includes a fine nib based on the two I have inked so far. It will need silicone grease for the plunger -- we'll talk about whether you want me to apply that or you prefer to do it yourself. This will probably be a maroon/burgundy color.

 

1 Hero 366. Hooded xf/f nib. This is a short pen with a small bulb-looking filler instead of the longer aerometric-looking ones on the 329. This will probably be a green pen.

 

Neither have ever been inked.

 

I'll also throw in an ink sample in a plastic vial like used in the ink exchange. I'll give the choice of:

 

Diamine China Blue

Quink Blue-Black

Quink Washable Blue

Rohrer & Klingner Black

Noodler's Heart of Darkness (Black)

Manuscript Blue

Baystate Concord Grape

Pre-Slovenian Skrip Red (I haven't tried it myself yet)

Noodler's Dostoevsky

FPN Galileo Manuscript Brown

 

US only and shipment by USPS only, please. I'll bubble wrap and place in a bubble mailer. As indicated above, this is one lot of pens and ink sample that goes to the first eligible person who PMs me.

A cartridge of Lamy Blue ink (one of my favorites), that is meant for someone who wants to try out this ink for the first time. ENJOY!
