What pen are you waiting for in the mail?


scratchy

Recommended Posts

Just bought a Sheaffer Prelude (incandescent green, medium nib) from the Goulets.

 

And I'm still waiting for my Pilot FP-78G. :crybaby:

 

But I got my Ohto Tasche today and it's great! :clap1:

Up until yesterday, three pens, then one arrived from Switzerland, which prompted me to start a new thread hoping someone could identify it.

Then here's a Jade Duofold (this will be my second, I just love the colours as well as how they perform)from the States, won 10 days ago on ebay and Royal mail tried to deliver it yesterday when I was at work, so will have to collect today :puddle:

Finally an early herringbone Duofold which I won on ebay yesterday, which looks very interesting and crisp, but the seller posted very little info. Again, can't wait!

I'm waiting on my first Conway Stewart - a 1938 475, in blue and black marble. With a fine, flexible nib! Very excited!

I'm waiting on a Pelikan M200 coming from Europe, and 6 bottles of P.W. Akkerman ink coming from Sweden. No idea when either will arrive. :hmm1:

If it wan't for the last second, nothing would be accomplished.

A green Estie J with a 9788 nib. Hope it is interesting. Seller's computer went down, so I hadn't gotten notice it had been sent, but have now heard it is on the way.

 

BTW, I"m going to offer the pen, sans nib, up for trade for another J body (color) - I've got a green, and I don't feel a need to collect multiple copies of pens...

I've got a TWSBI Diamond 540 M on the way. It's my first step out of EF land, and I wasn't quite sure I wanted to jump all the way to a B just yet. My notebooks are all A5 and smaller, and I can't imagine writing much (especially Chinese) in those with a B...but an M might be doable, so I thought I'd give it a shot.

Jinhao X450, greenish gray marble with a medium nib.

 

I've been spending a lot of time prowling stationeryart.com for cheap Asian pens. I got my Pilot 78G yesterday, and it's a great writer for such a low price.
