What pen are you waiting for in the mail?

[elpelco]

I'm currently waiting for a hero 329 which I bought on impulse from ebay. And an ink sampler from pear tree pens, yay!

 

I@m awaiting them both even more eagerly now, since my Lamy safari just died in a horrible way.

[Onth]

I am waiting for the Pelikan M400 White Tortoise.

Utililzed the 25% cash back on ebay and extra 10% ebay coupon, paid $110 for this beauty!

 

Cant wait for it to arrive.

Dear Scratchy;

 

I am waiting on two vintage pens- A #12 Waterman and a #32A-V Waterman that Luckygrandson was so nice to want to find new homes for

 

I sure hope they come soon!

 

I also had Santa order a M320 Pelikan with a customized nib--so; that should come 'air mail..err sled'...

Thank goodness Christmas isn't far away.

 

Respectfully,

Maria

 

 

Helloooo fellow pen hounds.....

 

I have just ordered a Sailor Sapporo F nib with gold trim. I don't reckon it will arrive till next week though......

(I've already got a Professional Gear with B nib)

 

For what pen(s) are you waiting, in the mail? And are you waiting patiently lol....

 

[Underskoterskan]

I'm waiting for no less than three Parker 45's (one of them being a Flighter) after winning three online auctions.

I am waiting for a burgundy PFM II to return from Ron Zorn with a new lease on life. Now that's going to be exciting. I'm also waiting for a few vintage pieces from eBay, an Eagle, a Prosperity and an unusual Wearever. I hope the nibs are good and the celluloid smooth when they arrive.

[discplayer]

I'm also waiting for a set of 10 Hero 616's. Christmas gifts. Thought I'd do something rather than the usual Starbucks card for the those close but not close enough.

[Rendao]

A nice little Pelikan M800... and no i am not being very patient !!!!

 

Regards Mr Hurry Up Man.

[elpelco]

I just ordered a 10 pack of hero 616's, I'm planning to keep a few to try out my pear tree pen samplers, and use the rest to sneakily convert my non FP friends. >insert evil laugh here<

[Ghost Plane]

Still waiting on the Conklin that was supposed to ship yesterday after the nib swap

[Robert Hughes]

Aurora 98 from Italy.

 

Waterman 515 from Britain.

 

Vacumatic from New York.

[WillSW]

Waiting for my Lamy 2000, should arrive any day from a Pendemonium regrind to a true XF. Very excited, as I'm anticipating it will become my favorite pen immediately.

 

Also waiting for my first Reform 1745, which I requested to be reground to a fine before sending. Also very excited about this, hopefully it won't turn into a series of Pelikan purchases (really can't afford it).

 

And a nib smoothing kit from Tryphon. If I prove to have any skill with this thing I could end up with an excellent flexy Eversharp.

[Ted H]

1950's Pelikan 400 from Germany, thanks to FPN'er piembi.

[Beechwood]

A Parker Vacumatic, my first. A Black and Silver 1940s.

 

I am busy learning what I can on the range and looking for a UK expert, I understand that they are not DIY friendly.

 

An ebay purschase so I am just hoping it will by OK.

I am afraid I got +1 instead of receiving.

 

Current status is:

- STILL 1 from US

- STILL 1 from UK (that's the most worrying of all, it's now almost two weeks...)

- plus another from UK.

 

The new one will be my first Sheaffy Flat top. It is a pretty discolored jade, but I got it for a small price and I am looking forward to it.

Yahoo! I scored another Balance on the bay! It's a Junior Lifetime pre-white spot.

 

The problem is that none of the preceding three arrived so far.

 

So now I have:

 

- 1 from US (purchased on 10 of Nov)

- 2 from UK (around last week end)

- 1 from Italy (yesterday)

 

Potentially they may show up all at once...

 

So, as I have already reported (in the "What pen did you get today" thread), two of them showed up today! The strange thing is: they were the last two I purchased... some kind of Lifo. Better wait for the other two before looking to the marketplace again!

 

[Deirdre]

Three Conway Stewarts, two Ancoras, and a Visconti.

Got two of the Conway Stewarts. Should get at least one of the others tomorrow.

I got the Visconti. Down to waiting for the two Ancoras and the remaining Dinkie.

[QM2]

...

two Ancoras,

...

 

Deirdre, which two Ancoras? You know of course what my one and only Ancora shall be. (Soon!..)

 

I am waiting for the MB Charles Dickens and for an Aurora. Which Aurora, you ask? I am afraid to say and jinx it. It is an unusual one. Piston filler. Got the colour red in it. Can't say more, lest the pen gods are angered by my eagerness.

I'm STILL waiting on the dratted Conklin LE. Went in for a nib swap in October, supposedly got shipped out this week, but it's not here.

[reginaldgolding]

Just picked up 19 "low end" pens on fleabay. God help me.

Mostly Esties, a Vac, a few glassnibbed crescents (my first of this kind, had to try), and some Wearever fixer-uppers.

Looking forward to getting them back into shape.

[TMac]

Waiting on a Parker Frontier.

[diplomat]

Got the one from US: thanks speerbob! Superfast ship and no duty taxes!!!

(that is almost a prime...) :clap1:

 

Still waiting for my firs jade flat top, in the while...

 

 

I am afraid I got +1 instead of receiving.

 

Current status is:

- STILL 1 from US

- STILL 1 from UK (that's the most worrying of all, it's now almost two weeks...)
