10 New Lamy Inks At The End Of The Year!

[Astronymus]

I read somewhere there might be a delay until spring 2019. Bottling problems.

I hope not.

 

IIRC, the original plan to launch the inks by year end rather than just announce them?

[Calabria]

I've never been interested in the newest lemon chiffon ink so haven't been following this thread ... didn't know that I was missing a spirited discussion about the Lamy brand!

 

I love Lamy but I also drive a Volkswagen so go figure. When I got the Aion it found its place on my dashboard for a while.

 

But what gets me are the strong feelings in this thread! Isn't that a sign of success? On other threads, there will be some chatter about the new Renaissance Quartz Lorenzo di Medici plastic pen, and whether the photos catch the hints of blue in the brown. *Yawn* But here, people are getting seriously angry! If I was a marketing strategist at Lamy I'd be happy about the excitement.

 

I like the ink bottles btw and will get the grey ink at some point. Otherwise, my ink choices will rarely be wilder than MB royal blue and Pelikan blue black.

Actually, unfortunately, the irritation was directed at times toward the writers of the posts, not just toward Lamy. I don't like all Lamy products and I am unstimulated by the pics of these new inks, but I am always interested to see what the company might offer next. I feel the same way about TWSBI offerings.

Just spirited 'run ins' with brand loyalists.

I am sure none of the opinions expressed here, have Lamy rushing to R&D.

Lamy has done some mistakes. They'll have to live with the critique.

Once again you are off target - but I guess that as long as you can express yourself, that's all that matters.

Like I just said.

 

This thread has gone to seed.

Does this mean Lamy has bottled it by not bottling it until they bottle it so unbottling?

[Glenn-SC]

There are still 3 months until "the end of the year."

Instead of damning with rumors now, we could wait the 3 months and see what appears!

Your question bottles... uhm boggles my mind.

It seems to be a boggling bottling.

I've owned Lamy products since I was in grade school: it's safe to say they are one of my favourite brands. But they've gone and done a Sailor with inks. Why not ten new colours in their practical signature bottles, at normal price? Would it bankrupt them? They deserve a bash.

[PAKMAN]

I just hope they have the special edition orange as a regular ink! My favorite orange!

[Astronymus]

You mean copper orange? That was a magnificent orange.

Hmmm,

not sure what the true state of affairs is, but I have just received the bottles of the new Ink that I ordered at the weekend. The seller said their stocks were limited and that further supplies would arrive in the New Year, but to misquote "The ink is out there'

 

P.S. yes I am a Lamy addict so just had to see what the 'new' ink was like and compare with my current favourite the Chromatic ink from Caran d'ache

P.P.S. and yes there is truth in the saying about a fool and his money

And you will be posting reviews of these colors?

Which retailer, please?

Where did you buy it and how much did you pay?

[bonnie-scott]

Will do a review (at least an attempt) when I have had a bit of play......

 

For those that asked I got the ink from penandpaper.co.uk and paid the list price of £9.50 but bought enough to get the free shipping, which can be costly for us in the far north.......

 

Although afterwards I was trying to work out what I could add to colour champagne as this would be much cheaper to use as an ink
