Just bought a Visconti Homo Sapiens Oversize in Bronze Age with an EF nib from Bryant at Chatterley Luxuries. Knowing Bryant, I should have it within the week! :D

I'm waiting for a package of ten hero 616 pens from a reputable eBay dealer, for $20. These are amazing pens and, assuming I can get the majority of them tuned up nicely, these might very well be my main writing instruments for years to come.

A 1980's Pelikan D400 and R400 both stamped West Germany to accompany my M400 and K400. It will be my first and only complete set of fountain pen, rollerball, ball point, and pencil.

It looks like that Taccia Staccato that has been bouncing around MD and NC post offices has finally moved into California.

My husband just bought a Parker 75, in sterling silver, with the matching mechanical pencil on ebay. I'll find out when it comes if it's my grail pen - I couldn't see if it had metal threads or plastic. I'm sure I will love it anyway :)

Hubby knew that I had been longing for a Faber Castell Loom and a Seven Seas Writer, so he bought them for me for Christmas! Can't wait for them to get here in the mail...hopefully tomorrow.

I thought, with the Waterman Carene and the Eversharp Symphony having come in, that I was all out of pens to wait for this year.

 

Then Nakaya e-mailed me saying my Briar is on its way back to me, with the nib adjusted. I like the 3776 Century I picked up on Black Friday, which has a very similar shape, but I really am looking forward to having the Briar back.

A nice French safety pen - a Gold Starry No 255 (Seller's photo of course).

My Jinhao 3000 - French Eiffel Towel pattern embossment arrived today. Inked with Chesterfield Mahogany. Have already placed a two-tone Goulet 1.1 stub on it. Interesting looking pen.
