Still a few days left before I draw for the Naranja and the Retro 51, not much interest in the Retro 51 as of yet...

 

Congratulations to all the recent winners in here, some very generous offers lately :thumbup:

There have been some great give always on here recently. Very generous people, I have my fingers crossed for a draw that I think is happening tonight.

Hello all

 

I'd like to make a PIF offer in recognition of all the very generous help & advice I've been given by FPNers, since I joined here about 9 months ago. And indeed all the fun, humour and wit.

 

I don't have any wonderful expensive pens to give away, like some of the amazing offers that have been made before, but I do have lots of stashed stationery "stuff". So I thought it would be fun to put together a bundle to offer here.

 

I don't have any strict rules, but I'd really like my PIF to go to any students or those on a limited budget, and who are just starting out with fountain pens, as I think the package will be most relevant & useful to them. I have included a fountain pen, of course, and also some fun stuff.

 

I've included website links where I could so you can get more details (no affiliation nor are they necessarily where I purchased the items).

 

Here's the package:

So - that's my bundle. I'm in the UK therefore I'd prefer any 'bidders' to be based here & I will pay postage. I think that sadly the postage to anyone outside the UK will be prohibitive - unless any overseas bidder wishes to pay for p & p themselves.

 

Anyone interested please send me a PM. I'll leave this open till 7th December. Selection will by random number selection.

 

Good luck

 

Marie

Hey guys,

 

I have an almost full bottle of Gatecity's Everflow basic black bottle. I can't get this ink to work in some of my pens. Maybe you will have better luck. I can mail this bottle to anyone in Canada. So first Canadian to pm me can get this bottle sent for free.

Thanks Gump. I really appreciate it. Is there any particulars about using this pen? I am fairly new.

Nothing terribly notable. The converter is the standard Chinese sliding style, but that's about all I can think of. It's a very firm medium nib with solid ink flow. I probably went through 2-3 converters of ink, so it's practically new.

I have another Serwex 101 ED filled FP to give away. This one is red. It has the original steel nib from FPR and is completely unused. Transparent barrel. Drop me a PM to say why you want it. Depending on interest I will leave this open for the rest of this week and choose a winner friday evening. Open to anyone, anywhere. Even in India.

Did the drawing for the Edisons last night, and heard back from the winners this morning. Congrats to Maggie S. and Suresh.

Gutted but congrats to you both.

New PIF

Waterman Kultur (like the Phileas).

This is a well known workhorse pen, generally much liked.

I don't really get on with it.

So let me know if you'd like it.

My usual rules apply ie no previous winners of my PIFs, no recent winners of any PIFs and Newbies preferred!! :)

Congrats to the winners. I'm insanely jealous!

Yeah, sorry to everyone else. There were sort of an insane number of entries - somewhere in the range of 170 total, so I'm afraid that made the odds pretty slim.

Hey, it was a very nice thing to offer. We sincerely appreciate the generosity!

A few days left for entering my PIF draw. Lots of interest from FPNers outside UK who are willing to pay the postage - makes me appreciate how lucky we are here, with easy access to good stationery & competitively priced pens.

That speaks volumes as to the quality of the item you were offering. A hearty congratulations to those selected, and kudos to you for your generosity.

Congratulations to all the winners! The generosity of those who have and continue to donate such great pens and related gear is so impressive. I love reading this thread! It is uplifting. Hope the winners will find a way to show us pictures with writing samples and the great gear/stuff/swag/booty they received. Thanks to all.
