Guider RCE-Black

Ratman Mottled Green

Laban Kaiser Antique Ivory

 

The two Indian pens are my first ED and first ebonite pens so looking forward to the new experience with them.

 

The Laban was just too beautiful and I got a really good deal. Hope they all make it for Christmas.

Waterman's 52 V.

Some sort of ED, Canadian made, possibly Aiken Lambert [not for certain].

Platinum Leather from stan / Ryojusen Pens.

Waterman's Persian http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...em=130275187452 which, if it's a #94, probably has the wrong nib since seller reports it to be a #2. Still colour is nice, I think it was a good price? Perhaps someone knows something about this pen? Not sure what "The sac holder has a small piece missing" means, guess I'll find out if it's serious...

 

Edit: And add to that 6 (more) 1745s from Lexaf. These pens are every bit as good as everyone is saying. The perfect gift starter FP!

I am currently awaiting the arrival of a Blue Auroraloide Aurora Optima, as well as an Eversharp 5th Avenue. The mail should be delivered in about an hour, and gee I hope today is the day that they come.

STILL no Conklin LE, despite daily phone calls to their office and Robert assuring me he'll phone back in "15-20 minutes", which he never does. I touched it ONCE before Altman paid for shipping to Conklin in October and was going to pay for shipping back once the nib was swapped. :crybaby:

A Pelikan M400 White Tortoise XF nib. I'm thrilled! I know it might take until after Xmas, but one can always hope... :P

Two pens:

A gold-plated NOS Targa, a late production model with no model number, from eBay. I picked it up cheap. I bid on a fair number of Targas but don't win very many. This one wasn't advertised as a Targa so I guess most people missed it and I didn't have much competition.

 

And a Stipula DaVinci from the Marketplace here. I can't wait for that one! It has a 1.3mm italic nib.

I am so excited today (if the wheater is good :) ) my first OS Sheaffer Lifetime FT will be shipped from US. It will be a long wait I guess (Xmas vacation and all...) but I am anticipating it!

 

Problem is I have already a OS Balance on mail since the 11th of December and I hope it will be here before the 24th. After that I will start my "North Italy Tour" to chatch parents for Xmas n' I am a little nervous the pen will arrive then and be stolen!!!

 

Gosh.... it's a nightmare!

Lamy Studio. My first step up from Chinese pens and my Safari, which I love, but looking forward to getting away from the molded grip.

Pens currently in carrying case: Lamy 2000 F with Noodler's Navy/Bulletproof Black mix, Sheaffer Imperial M with Noodler's Golden Brown, and Lamy Logo F with Noodler's Bulletproof Black.

Have now turned the Conklin matter over to my credit card company for them to assist. Either the pen or the money, but I need one of them back! :angry:

Ouch, Ghost. I hope you get a fast resolution, now, though.

 

 

I'm waiting for my Pearl ED from Brian Gray, a "51" set in plum from David I., an Aurora taking its time to either smell the roses - or shovel walks this time of year - on its way from the UK, and half a dozen no-name stocking stuffers/new year's gifts. I'm hoping the first three show up today.
