What pen are you waiting for in the mail?

[olivier78860]

A NOS Onoto De La Rue blue & black marbled, late 40s, plunger FP with flexible nib. *thinks it's about time to stop buying for a while*

[penluvva]

Just received a black Parker 17, with italic nib, this morning.

But am waiting for delivery of :

1. Sheaffer stainless steel FP. (£6-50p)

2. Sheaffer Lady 620 white dot (£9-99p)

3. Sheaffer Triumph 444 (£21-00)

4. Sheaffer stainless steel, white dot. (£10-50) With it comes a Papermate Ballpen, but I could not resist the Sheaffer.

 

Yesterday morning on ebay(UK) there was a Sheaffer Imperial. The seller did nt know what model, and others informed him that it was the Imperial. Seller stated that it needed an ink cartridge, until another interested party informed him it was the Touchdown (?) model, and would require a new sac, and some ring. Not being into repairs I did not bid. I think it went for between £10-16. So did someone get a bargain ?

And last night missed out on a Cross Townsend Medalist, boxed, new with ink. It went for just over £30.

Ordered a TWSBI 540 transparent demonstrator and waiting for it.

It is shipped from Taiwan and may take about 2-3 weeks, now that is a very long period.

 

Will be buying an Orange Crush from Private Reserve. I bet the transparent pen will look amazing with this coloured ink.

I'm waiting for a mystery purple number that I paid £2 for on Ebay and a shocking pink Platignum No5 that I paid a fiver for. If they turn out to be dire at least it won't be too expensive!

Waiting for the Lamy Safari in Aquamarine colour which happens to be a special edition for the year 2011.

Will be inking it with Sheaffer Turquoise. By this way the ink and the pen will match their colours.
