Custom double ended pen from Edison Pens. My fingers are twitching in anticipation of its arrival.

My friend managed to get me a great deal on a Faber-Castell Loom with a B nib! Twenty percent off the list price! I'm really excited for it :D.

I'll keep on struggling, 'cause that's the measure of a man.

Montblanc 149 and a Sheaffer PFM V in green - truth be told they have already arrived yesterday but I don't get home to play with them for another week :(

A Sailor Pro Gear Imperial Black with a B nib that I bought through WhiteRabbit Express. They still haven't asked me for the shipping payment so not really in the mail right now.

 

And a Jinhao 159 from Ebay. This is my first Ebay purchase and I wanted something inexpensive as my first purchase. If this goes well I have my eyes on some Pilots from Japan, especially the Custom 92. And those Chinese Picasso pens look great IMHO so they too are on my list.

Waiting for three (3) from Fountain Pen Revolution(not affiliated, unfortunately for me): a black ebonite Triveni, a black Guru, and a green Dilli. There is currently a special on the web site for purchasing one (1) Triveni for $38, and get one (1) Dilli for $0.01, and one (1) Guru for $0.01. Could not pass it up, plus the 3 for $7 extra nibs.

All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.
Edmund Burke (1729 - 1797)

Just bought an old style Pelikan M200 with Boad nib. Hoping it proves a great reliable War Horse of a pen! The nib? Am a bit apprehensive but at least with Pelikan there is lots of options! :D

None! Not a thing. And that please me. It means that there's no risk of anything getting lost in the mail.

 

I got in my Romillo and MB Boheme a few weeks ago now.

I was in exactly the same position, but then I came across this particular pen just before the auction ended.

The seller says he got it ten years ago, used it a few times and then put it in a drawer. So a nearly-new pen in a trim I like (deep blue with silver-coloured trim), at a good price (just under half street price, with delivery) right at the start of the month... "Maybe someday" became, "OK: now".

Franklin-Christoph model 03 Iterum in Smoke, M-Stub (my first) 18K Masuyama nib. This is my first venture into the >$100 territory and my new "Save up for the one that you really want" policy toward pens.

Is there such a thing as a pen fairy? I do believe there must be. I did my routine search of French fountain pens on ebay and came across another Red Ripple Bayard. The clip is plain silver and not as majestic as the dragonfly clip on my most recent acquisition but it's still a lovely pen. The seller said the pen was unmarked but the design on the barrel tipped me off as well as the lever's insignia of crossed nibs and the E and F (Etienne Forbin) on either side of the nibs. I'm so excited!
