What Pen Did You Get Today?

A MB 149 :yikes:

My pen checks and cracks... my strat's nitrocellulose finish checks and cracks. Could that mean that the fancy precious resin is the same stuff that Fender uses to cover their guitars?

 

-Just a thought....

Today I received a Cross, gold and black stripe, Signature Fountain pen with an XF nib. I really looks great with my Signature .5 pencil. This might turn into my everyday carrying set. :eureka:

And I won an eBay auction for a Parker Senior Duofold. RAWR!

Picked up on clearance sales: Parker Latitude Rollerball, Parker Latitude ball point and Cross Vapor ball point: all at about 70% off. This is always so much more fun (and doable) at lower prices.

 

Bought 2 8 1/2 x 11 leather dayrunner organizers for $17.00 ea that normally run at $99.99 each. Sold both of them and paid a good chunk of the cost of the pens I bought on sale.

 

I like (almost) free.

It's been forever since I could post on this topic. It's not a FP but it still makes me happy! I got a Rotring 600 lava finish BP to go with my FP thanks to a nice FPNer in the market place! I do have a wonderful fountain pen in the mail. My Christmas present from my wife (she just doesn't know it yet :thumbup: )

The USPS web site shows that the package from Kevin/winedoc, with the following three pens:

- Danitrio Cumlaude (smaller size in brown ) w/ an 18K F nib

- Danitrio Cumlaude (smaller size in blue-grey) w/ an 18K F nib, and

- Danitrio Tamenuri Hanryo w/ an 18K F nib

has arrived! The only problem is I'm at the office... :mellow:

 

Anyway, big thanks to Kevin!

Talking about fountain pens is like dancing about architecture.

(In the past week)

 

* My second Pilot Pluminix - now I have one for home, one for the office. They are just so cute, the italic nib belies its £3.99 cost.

* 3 more Cross Solos - two fine, one medium. Just love those Namiki nibs (same as on the Pilot Lucina)

* Waterman Gentleman in brown lacquer, 18K fine nib. This was sitting in my next door neighbour's hall for a week while I was convinced it must have been misdelivered or lost by the courier. Took a bit of soaking and cleaning, but its writing wonderfully now.

Just received my "Exceptional" by Pick Pen. It's oversized and truly is exceptional. It arrived home in Atlanta after a long vacation at Penopoly where Roger Cromwell put it in really good shape. I loaded it with PR Purple Mojo and it took such a big gulp, I could actually see the ink level go down in the bottle. It's one BIG Daddy and writes great. :)

Just got the red Pelikan M200 demonstrator that I won on eBay earlier this week. Sweeet! Now I just need the green demonstrator and my M200 demo collection is complete (I think).... :blink:

Got a green Waterman Phileas yesterday off the'bay, my second fountain pen (and so it begins). Put the green ink cart. in it, a very cool color. It writes very nice.

Omas Milord Old Style (2004) in gray!! Some day I hope to have that Arco Brown Celluloid James P. got a couple of days ago!!

 

Opus, how do you like the Omas Milord old-style? I have one on order, but don't expect to receive it until the week after next; one of the drawbacks of living in the "colonies" I guess.

Well, I *almost* received my Aurora Fuoco, but it appears the wrong zip code was accidentally put on the box, so the seller was surprised to find it in her mail again :rolleyes: It's back into the mail to me, and I can't wait! Meanwhile, I had several lovely "pen-ish" gifts arrive in the mail this week: a bottle of Noodlers Burgundy and a lovely pen case, both birthday gifts from friends who know I love fountain pens.

 

Now I'm not-so-patiently awaiting the Aurora Fuoco (my birthday gift to myself)...already have my ink picked out (Levenger Cardinal).
