What pen are you waiting for in the mail?

Recommended Posts

I'm waiting for a customised Nakaya. Having arrived in the UK, it has then taken some 10 days (!) to clear UK customs, I paid the Duty on-line today and expecting a delivery on Tuesday.

Just ordered a Delta Napoleone Bonaparte in red. Now to play the dreaded waiting game...

Although not as exciting as some of the others on here, my wife just called to inform me that my new charcoal Lamy Safari XF just arrived in the mail. That would be great news except that I am 2400 miles away from home right now! :crybaby: And, this is to be my traveling pen (oh, the irony of it all).

Somewhere amongst the 40 million pieces of backed up mail from the postal stike is my Pilot Stealth VP...somewhere...

 

And I didn't make that number up, that's how many pieces of mail are stuck in the Canada Post system.

 

UPDATE JULY 11 - 70 million as of this past weekend. I'll be on old age security before anything shows up.

An Esterbrook M2 aerometric. It has a damaged nib marked "Stephens 18ct gold plated Made in England".

 

With luck, I should be able to stub the nib.

I'm waiting for a Conway Stewart Coronet Celebration eyedropper version.

Nervous? No, I'm just thinking...

Two Bexleys from Richard: A Summer Storm Corona and a Greenbrier Americana (already gave the Rio Grande Red and love it).

Hah. This is the last pen, I swear, nothing exotic: just won a red Esterbrook J with a 9668 nib, looks really nice. All that is left for me, for the time being, is whenever the FPN LE Passaporta ends up being created and shipped...

Waiting for my first 3 fountain pens- A Jinhao x450, a Jinhao x750, and a Jinhao 1200 "Noblest Spirit Chonghwa" (I figured I needed something flashy).

The Highlander was a documentary, and the events happened in real time.

A Noodler's Ink resin piston fill (which was supposed to arrive "by 07/30/11" :bawl:) and a Lamy Al-Star.

 

I'm also waiting on a bottle of Noodler's Baystate Blue, 5 ink samples from Goulet, a variety of stamps and postcards, and a couple of sealing waxes, so this week is gonna be pretty awesome. Even when it's stuff I've bought myself, getting packages in the mail thrills me. :wub:
