A sheaffer Snorkel I picked up on the 'bay for $50 plus $12 for shipping.

 

dunno if I overpaid, but it looks like a nice one. http://www.ebay.ca/itm/261105070150?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649

I waiting for a jes ordered TWSBI 540 w/ extra 1.1 nib.

 

Worse, I'm almost wetting my leg waiting for my very first vintage pen (one more payment), a '30s Waterman No. 3 with a No. 2 Ideal "super-flex" nib.

 

Jinkies!

There's a black Omas 360 with a custom CI nib from John Mottishaw sitting in Canada Customs right now waiting to be released, arriving to me a few days after. I hope.

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

 

A Parker 51 Flighter should be waiting for me when I get home from work today. Somehow, I've ended up with eight or nine 51s, but this will be the first time that I've owned a Flighter trim 51. Looking forward to this one...

Am I the only one that thinks this thread is posted in way too much? Pens are pricey! hahaha.

 

I have a new Sailor ProGear with a M nib in Rhodium trim on it's way. Hopefully a nice step up from my Lamy AL-Star. :puddle:

2 Jinhao X750s (white with silver colored trim) with Broad nibs. I'm going to grind one (both if I screw up the first one) to a stub italic. For $15 shipped, I won't be too disappointed if this goes horribly wrong. I think it'll be alright, though.

Niiiice! I have four sailors, three with medium nibs and they are all very nice now. :)

 

This morning I ordered a Pelikan M1000 so now I hope that someone will buy my 149 soon...

I am expecting a LAMY Al-Star purple with fine nib in time for International Fountain Pen day.

That is new pen for the unofficial holiday.

Woo Hoo.

I'm going to fill it with Noodler's Rome Burning.

A burgundy Sheaffer PFM III FP/Pencil set, a NOS Parker "51" 1950s aerometric FP/LL pencil set, and a 1960s Parker "51" Special that looks like it might have a gold nib. Can't wait! :bunny01:

Oh, dear, pen envy sets in. :puddle:

 

I have a Black Esterbook with the Fort Wayne Schools imprint and an unknown "Atomic" pen set on the way, all via Ebay. Should keep me busy for a bit.

 

EDIT: Just noticed, three Michiganders posting in a row!

I have a handful of Snorkels and that price seems fair, based on what I've paid for mine over the last few years. I paid a similar amount for my black/gold Statesman ($50, including cost of restoration, which was a great deal IMO).

Hello fellow FPN'ers. New guy on the block and thought I'd chime in was well. Have a MB 244 and a Waterman 52 on the way. Thinking about adding a Serwex or two to that list. Oh forgot I added 2 more Pilot 78G's as well since I really like the matte brushed look I did to the current one I own.

Enjoy life, and keep on writing!

A black Pelikan M200 with gold trim. It doesn't seem particularly exciting, except for the XF full-flex 14k nib by Mr Binder. :puddle: I also have 300 sheets of ivory of G. Lalo Verge de France paper incoming with 75 of accompanying envelopes and 4 bottles of J. Herbin's Lie de The!
