I'm just a little confused, is this a group buy for only the Ranga 5, or for both the Ranga 5 and Ranga 3? If the Ranga 3 is included could you also let us know how much it would be? Thank you in advance.

There is a typo on the title line for the German nib unit versions. Model 3, rather than the intended Model 5.

For the ED versions, would the Ambitious 35 and 40 mm nib versions share a common section and feed?

 

Thanks

Curiously, I'm going to ask for the exact same model as @neotobeo...

Thank you for organising another great GB Vaibhav. Having done some research I will not be taking part as the Model 5 is just too big for my hand. I can whole heartedly endorse the high quality of Ranga Pens and encourage all interested posters to take part in the GB. The quality is outstanding.

Excuse me, Vaibhav, I'm thinking that perhaps my last post has been left unnoticed... Please, could you also confirm that you have taken note of it?

Thank you very much!

 

I'm sorry if I didn't make myself clear before... This is my first group buy, so I would like to do everything OK. Thank you for organising this.

 

This is also my first pen from India! And also my first ebonite pen. The premium ones seem really wonderful in the photos and everyone speaks good things about their quality. I can barely wait to get that black/yellow one!

[sandburger]

The photo for Regular Ebonite #1 is not at all what I expected from the words "mottled brown"!

 

Other photos of mottled brown Ranga pens (such as on the Peyton Street Pens site) show a mixture of brown and black, and the brown color looks "warmer" and less green than the color in the first photo.

 

Mr. Kandan, can you confirm whether or not the photo shows what one can expect if mottled brown is ordered? Does this stock of mottled brown normally include a more even balance of brown and black, and is the brown color the same as is typically found in the brown ripple? I realize there is always variation in this material, but if the color is truly as is shown in the photo, I wonder if I should opt for the brown ripple or an entirely different color.

 

Can anyone with firsthand experience of mottled brown and brown ripple Ranga pens help me figure out what to expect? Also does anyone have an opinion of mottled brown in the bakul finish rather than the polished version?

 

Thank you to all who can share their opinions and impressions!

I'll take one in red/black swirls with a chome coloured Jowo medium nib.
