What pen are you waiting for in the mail?

[TheGreatImber]

Pilot Vanishing Point "Stealth" in Medium...

I've been waiting to pull the trigger on this one for a loooooong time. Once I noticed they were running out everywhere, just had to get it.

I too am waiting for the FPN pens. But sooner in my grasp, I'm waiting for a used Visconti Millennium Arc in blue with a broad nib. I hate the broad nibs on Viscontis, so I am going to get it ground down at the DC Pen Show.

Lince, that Edison Glenmont is so classy looking!

 

Simonerodrigue, that is one great looking Visconti, though I differ from you in that I like the Visconti B nibs - I just prefer them to be stubs; just the job for a nibmeister!

 

I just got notified that my "Nox" pen, by C.E. Levi Pens, is in the mail on its way from Canada. CLewis here on FPN made it for me, from solid rods of ebonite and bronze and a vintage flexible Swan No. 2 nib. I can't remember being this excited about a pen, and I've bought quite a few. Pictures of my pen from CLewis below:

Wow, the nib on that looks INCREDIBLE.

 

I'll consider getting the broad nib stubbed. All I know is that the plain broad nib is just too thick to write with. It's so frustrating, and it's on my other favourite pen - a Chatterley silver Ripple. That one will be going to the DC pen show for modification too.

Likewise, I am waiting on my first Sailor, also purchased from Engeika. Mine is a 1911 mid size with 21k Fine nib!

 

My first Sailor, and I am expecting something truly special.

Someday I will own a Swan flex nib.

Nice pen.

[Jimmy James]

As of today, I am awaiting my first Bexley, a Corona in Lemon Meringue.

[Denny]

Just one day and a new Waterman Kultur is mine - well if I win that auction. It's still mine at this moment. I wish the Ebay server crashes for one day.

I am currently waiting for a couple of Lamy's. A Safari and an Al-Star. I am now addicted to fountain pens and I have only been using them for a couple of weeks..

[Marckuypers]

Gotta wait for my supplier to get back from vacation.. Then it's gonna be a Montblanc 149 with six bottles of Irushizuku ink

[Koshy]

Very unromantic of me! I am waiting for a set of three Platinum Preppy to be delivered from Ebay!

[ibz]

I just got a black Pilot Capless with a medium nib. It arrived all the way from Japan to the UK in 3 days. That's efficiency! Oh, and the pen is great too!

[century]

Im waiting for my entire newbie order.

The anticipation is killing me.

[Pensible]

Pilot DPN-70 (I got a really cool marble desk pen base and hope this fits in there)

Jinhao 750 (I bought a black one and rather like it, so getting a silver one)

Parker 51 (surprised this is not here yet, maybe tomorrow if I'm lucky)

Parker Reflex (it was a good deal and a cheap parker to carry around)

Pilot 78G (Bought one and wanted another)

 

I'm awaiting payday anxiously to order something good in the mid price range and some ink.

[Amandaa]

oh yes! im waiting on a pilot 78 too, forgot about that one. when you forget about pens does that mean you have a problem?

[madrigar]

I am waiting for a Pelikan M1005 Demonstrator with Medium nib. I tried this pen at a store recently - and I am looking forward to its arrival in the next few days.

Yes, you have a problem. But admitting it is half the battle. Join the club.
