What pen are you waiting for in the mail?

[Gdowne]

This beauty on its way from from Germany. I am practicing my patience, but have discovered I suck at it.

 

 

[AmateurAficionado]

A TWSBI 540 and a Noodlers Flex demonstrator. I hate waiting for international shipments!

[owenj]

A MB Starwalker w/medium nib. UPS says they're in Spokane as of 12:15am this morning I have to leave at 4am for a flight tomorrow, so it's probably going to be sitting on the porch.

[wastelanded]

I've got three in the post now. Well technically four. A Kaweco Dia, which I'm very excited about; a 'Bulow' X530 from Xfountainpens-I like the look of it, and if it's a dud I can always use it as a weapon; and a black Kaweco Sport classic-an accident. I meant to order a green/medium nib as an xmas gift, but ordered a black/extra fine. So two Sports on their way, I supPOSE I'll have to keep the black one for myself...

Vsconti Romancia Black and Silver vermeil.

[IWantThat]

A custom ordered Edison Pearl...checking tracking info several times a day and hope to have it by Monday

[dex138]

A Rotring Freeway in matte red with medium nib, to be filled with Monaco Red when it finally gets here....

[subbes]

A Pick Pen Co pendant I didn't mean to win; a Wahl Oxford with a flexy nib I didn't mean to win either; a blue 10-year-old Reynolds that is my attempt at recapturing the magic, and a Mentmore Nova that's more enigma than pen at this point considering the seller waited a full week and a half before shipping it.

 

 

(I MUST STOP TRAWLING EBAY AFTER A FEW DRINKS.)

A sailor burgundy 1911 with 21kt m nib plus ink.

Not for me, I'm spoiling the pen man in my life as he envys my sailor 1911.

Hope it is here before christmas ...., international post is unpredictable especially around holidays.

[Flounder]

Shuffling its feet and keeping its head down amongst all this distinguished company is my Parker Frontier, winging its way back from France by UPS this time, for some reason. I sent it off for a broad nib some time ago, then sent it back again for a new cap.

[Redbarchettayyz]

A Toledo Red Pelikan M205 with a Med. Nib from Richard Binder. Should show up shortly after the holidays.

[1point1mm]

T. W. S. B. I. Diamond 540 Demonstrator with the Broad Nib. Hopefully it'll be here tomorrow or by Friday latest. And to think, I was about to purchase a Pilot Prera Demonstrator!

[subbes]

oh gads, I bought an Esterbrook desk set this morning

 

 

 

(THE ONLY DESK IN THE HOUSE IS MY HUSBAND'S. HE WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO USE THE PEN. THIS WILL END WELL.)

[krandallkraus]

My FPN Stipula and my patience is wearing out. It surely won't be here by Christmas as I haven't even received a notice that it has shipped. I guess I will have to go shopping. Although I do have a Visconti Rembrandt wrapped up in a drawer that I will put under the tree.

[reval]

A Varuna for 1.5 month, I hope that it will still come, and a Platinum 3776 ribbed version that I am looking forward to very much.

[lavendrie]

Winging their way to me in the UK are:-

 

A Stipula Etruria Maki-e, a Stipula Florentia Aurea Silver L.E and a Sheaffer Legaacy 2 set in silver. However, the Sheaffers have been en route since October and were last seen in Belfast! So much for Royal Mail tracked deliveries.

[tinta]

Somewhere in the maw of Canada Customs is............

 

A Black/Rhodium Sailor 1911 Mid-Size Bespoke Collection pen, with a Naginata-Togi nib swapped out for a regular 14K Rhodium finished MS nib, reground for a 0.70 mm. Cursive Italic (by John Mottishaw)

 

Please,.......no GST + handling charges.

 

Maybe they'll be in a Christmas mood in Scarborough?
