What pen are you waiting for in the mail?

[NedC]

A yellow Pelikan m200, an orange Lamy Safari, both with M nibs which I'll regrind of swap out and a jade green Stipula Vedo, which is backordered.

[debraji]

A Pelikan Brown Tortoise with a scratchy nib that I picked up at the Philly Pen Show in January, and sent to Michael Masuyama for a regrind.

[kryft]

A new Pelikan M215 (F) from the Writing Desk and my Lamy 2000 (F) that I sent to Lamy for repairs. Well, technically the Lamy most likely isn't in the mail yet.

The Lamy Al Star in Coffee. I've been thinking about it for a week or so - dithering between a seller from Germany on Amazon, and a website I just found in the UK. I'd rather pay a couple of extra pounds and get one from the UK (using PayPal, from the website) than get one from abroad (using my card, on Amazon.) It was either the Coffee or the Purple, and frankly, I see the Purple one around EVERYWHERE so I figured that that Coffee would be a better option. Now if only I could find Coffee scented ink XD

Pilot 78G. Tuesday I will have them

[JPZ]

I'm waiting for the new green Lamy Safari. It'll probably arrive on Tuesday, but I'll be at work, and the sorting office will be closed when I get back. I may leave a note on the door, postman to postman, asking him if it doesn't fit to open the jiffy bag and put it through.

Esterbrook J in green with the elusive 9312 nib...

[The Good Captain]

It looks like I've won my first-ever eBay bid tonight and so I'll be getting a Pelikan M140 Black with KF nib in the mail in a week or so. I don't think I could stand another auction - far too stressful.

[squeakyao]

My first ever Esterbrook J in black!

 

I may have paid a little too much for it, however.

Waiting for the TWSBI Micarta. It's taking forever to get here According to my online tracking, it was in Maryland (where I live) yesterday... and today it's in West Virginia.

Sheaffer 100 Medium bought for me by my Fiancee. It's my second FP! (The first was a Lamy Safari...about two months ago..lol.)

 

I. Can't. Wait.

Only two months ago? Good grief you work quick XD Nice one.

 

I'm going to re-list what I'm waiting for while I'm here:

~ Lamy Al Star in Coffee

~ Lamy Nexx in Citron

~ For the Lamy Safari in Apple to be in stock on my preferred website so I can finally order one. I've been wanting a green Lamy for ages!

 

Also, it's not a fountain pen but I'm also waiting for this (A J.Herbin roller ball that can and does use their ink cartridges.) It was a) cheap and transparent (I think)and c) the current fountain pens I'm using don't like my Rouge Opera cartridges very much, so I'm hoping this pen does. I have a Kaweco Sport roller ball and I quite like it.

I received today one vintage Parker Slimfold (1960) a set or Pirre Paul metal pens and a Baoer 388 flighter version.

I am waiting for another Baoer 388, but that will take a while.

[TrinityTam]

USPS usually delivers the mail by noon. When nobody buzzed up by 2:30, my girlfriend decided to go to the gym. Of course, the postman shows up 10 minutes later. So now I have to wait until tomorrow to get my Namiki Falcon SF.

[whitedot]

My first FP was a Sheaffer Prelude in what I still consider to be one of the worst colour combinations ever concocted – yellow gold, stainless steel, complete with a pearly plastic cap insert. I am now waiting for the same pen in its best (discontinued) outfit – in my humble opinion. Here it is, all in black, except for the white dot. (Sorry for the horrible photos. They were taken by the seller. )

[NeelsK]

MB 149 EF nib, MB 149 Italic, MB Starwalker (Dunno what the nib meister did, just asked him to make that POS pen 'better' )

[whitedot]

It's here! A quick snap of the Prelude in its NOS glory.

[KrazyIvan]

It's here! A quick snap of the Prelude in its NOS glory.

 

A very Sith-like pen. Congrats.

 

I am waiting on a Pilot Namiki Custom 742 with a Su nib.

[DarkestNight]

It's here! A quick snap of the Prelude in its NOS glory.

 

That is a great looking pen. I have to say...I'm a little jealous.

[ravantra]

TWSBI Micarta with M nib.

 

It should be here today after taking the scenic route through the US. According to the tracking map it has been near my house 3 times on it's trek then abruptly sent to the state north of me, Wisconsin. Crazy.
