What pen are you waiting for in the mail?


scratchy

My first Chinese FP off of Ebay - Picasso 606 Accountant's pen in pink. It was so pretty and under 12$, I just had to have it. Here's hoping it writes decent. -_-

Think Mojito, M nib.

You need to evoke more terror in your co-workers. No one would grab Darth Vader's fountain pen. Hmm, I wonder what kind of pen that would be.

Today's mail brought us our Noodler's Flex pens (several of them actually!) and NOW the mail is going to be checked constantly as I'm waiting on this beauty:

My wonderful husband won this in an Auction (for a great charitable cause). The nib has been tuned by J. Mottishaw and it should be an awesome writer. :puddle:

 

Now ... will I be able to use it ???? :roflmho:

 

Time moves so slowly when you are waiting on something ... doesn't it....

ps. photo's borrowed from auction until I can take my own - thanks to the hosts - you are all fantastic!

Well I have been terribly bad in the last 36 hours. I ordered a 5 pen lot from Fountain Pen Revolution, all Indian eyedropper fill pens; a black Pilot 78G F nib, a Bookworm 702 in grey and black F nib and a Duke 116 Carbon Fibre in Red also with a F nib,About 5 Minutes ago I ordered a NOS Sheaffer Imperial 777 Gold filled with a F nib that replaces one that was my father's which has disappeared since he retired and passed away a short time ago.

"know thyself?" If I knew myself, I'd run away.

Found a Delta Vintage in Orange for a very good price (about 60 USD, guess it is NOS, because the color has been discontinued) and ordered one.

Now I am waiting for my first FP with a "classic" design. Hope it is not a lemon.

Waiting on an Esterbrook 'skunk' with the AAA emblem, appears to be nearly new from the pics, still I think I paid a bit much for a pen that likely needs resacing, but.... well it's an addiction!

Winning bidder of a Parker 75 Flighter, so will be checking the mail box regularly! The auction was a little vague, but the pictures looked good. Anxious to see what kind of shape it's in.

I´m waiting for a Nakaya Decapod with M flex nib. A friend of mine is flying to EEUU and will bring me the pen in about three weeks. I can´t wait for it :puddle:

This will be my first Japan fountain pen and the first one of my collection with a really flex nib.

Not a pen as such, but I dismantled my Parker 25 over the weekend to see if I could sort out why it kept blotting. When I looked inside, I found the shell was cracked.

 

So I'm waiting for a replacement nib unit which is hopefully on it's way from the Battersea Pen Home. When it arrives, I'm going to ditch the existing shell but keep the nib and feed as a spare.

I ordered the Kaweco calligraphy set from the Goulets on Friday. Can't wait to get my hands on 'em! Also threw in one of the mandarin yellow Noodler's flex pens.

Ooo, I bet you will love yours as much as I love mine, one in Crushed Shell, one in Tobacco Marble. Excellent pens.
