i hope it's ok to ask this here, regional question so i figured i'd give it a shot.

 

i've long been a Noodler's fan and now after some years away from the inky scene i'm hoping to restock my supplies a bit. ATM i'm looking for some of Noodlers Polar inks, Brown and Green in particular.

 

can anyone suggest a good UK supplier for Noodlers? i think i've tried the usual spots and Ebay is no help with this.

"i spent roughly 20 years writing a journal that extended to some 35 volumes. at the end of it i'd written a bunch of words that ended relationships, filled up my closet, spent a river of ink and afforded me some excellent practice with fountain pens. out of all of that i kept a few pens. i believe the moral of this story is that volumes written may well just be an exercise in trying to find something to say."

ah, seems i'm learning something here. tx for the heads-up guys. 👍

 

i had checked Amazon, prices seemed ridiculous, and i like to support actual shops if possible, hence casting the net for other options.

I remember ordering Noodler when Nathan first created his line of ink. That seems (and frankly was) a long time ago now.

 

I understand Pure Pens are one of the official distributors of Noodlers in the UK. They are a nice company based in Wales with their own line of lovely inks made for them (I think) by Diamine. I would recommend them for Noodlers Ink over Amazon if they have what you need. I think it’s important to support the small business that are the back bone of our hobby.

 

One final point. Nathan has become somewhat controversial for more than just his rather eccentric views on overfilling the bottles of Noodlers. As a result, I am afraid that I won’t be placing any orders for Noodlers in the future. My preference now is to support our domestic ink production by companies like Diamine. Again, if we don’t we can’t complain when they disappear.

as it happens i have no idea what controversy the Noodlers guy has stuck his foot in but that, as Hammy Hamster is believed to have said, is another story.

 

as to supporting local production and/or sales i agree 100%, especially in the case of a company like Diamine who obviously work their buns off staying in the game. use it or lose it.
