What Was Your Last Impulsive Pen Acquisition?

An Omas Ogiva Peach Bellini, which I received on February 11. I was amazed at how wonderful the nib wrote right out of the box. But in a week I can no longer get the pen filling mechanism to close. I am so disgusted. And I haven't heard back from Omas. I am really, REALLY disappointed. I expect a multi hundred dollar pen to be a little better made than this.

I would be more than disappointed. If OMAS didn't respond within, say, 3 business days, I would be starting the process for a chargeback on my credit card or paypal or whatever payment method I might have used. And once they hear they might have the money clawed back, I think I would hear from them right away. This is completely unacceptable.

The old Ogiva's dissembled easily... this is how mine came apart...

A Kaweco AC Sport Red with Black Carbon Fiber, with a Fine nib.  Aack, the first pen purchase of the new year, that wasn't supposed to happen until mid-April.

Cult Pens have a half-price sale on Graf von Faber-Castell and now I have an India Red Tamitio, extra fine nib, on its way to me. I've been wanting to get one for a while now, so when I saw this sale I grabbed one right away.
