What pen are you waiting for in the mail?


scratchy

Recommended Posts

a sailor 1911 demonstrator with ef nib

am nervous about the ef as I know japanese pens can run finer than most

i dont mind ultra fine as long as it doesnt mean scratchy...

So I'm opinionated - get over it!!.......No, really - get over it!!

Hmmmm I was going to put up a WANTS list - but that's too long as well ......

A Danitrio Mt. Fuji - I have been waiting many months for it, and the day of its arrival is drawing near!

 

Oh my, what a beautiful pen! If I had seen these pens earlier, I would've snapped up the butterfly or the Mt Fuji without a second thought. When do you expect to get it?

 

I am waiting on my first vintage pen, a Wahl ringtop, and a Dupont Olympio. I'm also waiting on a few of my other pens to come back from their stub treatment holiday. They're all due to arrive back in the next week or so, although that Dupont Olympio is taking its sweet time in getting here...

my sailor 1911 in yellow (M) arrived this morning. Fortunately, I bought a 400 Pelikan in blue from the classifieds this morning so I DO have something to anticipate. The sailor looks awesome. The brass ? collar ? inside the nib grip is twice the thickness of my Parkers. The pen feels wonderfully well made and the colour is all I'd hoped. I've only been on this forum about 3 days and I'm 2 pens to the good and eying more ink.............oh, the humanity!

A bunch of nice, inexpensive Parkers - 21, 45, Slimfold, Parkette plus some 88's and 25's...

I hope some of them manage to arrive on Monday :)

A Sheaffer OS Balance in Black with a radius clip. It's an ebay buy, so I'm a little nervous, but the pics looked good and the seller will refund if not satisfied. The OS Balance is one of my favorite pens for everyday writing and this will be my third of the same color/model. I wonder why we do that?

May we live, not by our fears but by our hopes; not by our words but by our deeds; not by our disappointments but by our dreams.

Sailor Sapporo Spring Ivory with EF nib. I'd have preferred something a bit wider, but EF was all MelPens had. It's going to be shipped on Monday.

Bought a large lot of pens on Ebay (mostly junk) but it looks like a few possible jewels in the batch. I'll know next week!
