  • Lot of 3 Hero 616 Jumbo in 3 colors (black, green, wine-red)
  • Kaigelu 365 blue medium nib (but I am afraid it is not what I was thingking about ...)
  • Indian made eyedroppers, a novelty to me, about what I am impatient to try:
    • Airmail 55 Blue, nib: medium
    • Airmail 80 Red, nib: medium
    • Airmail 44 Green, nib: medium

    and the relevant silicon grease to seal thread.

No trace of the chinese ones ... (who cares, I am starting to think ...): I have been waiting for more than a month and still no delivery.

If neither the Kaigelu nor the Hero arrive, that will be the third time I loose a shipment from China via e-bay: enough for me to stop buying there.

 

But exactly fifteen days after placing the order, here come the indian ones!

From right to left:

  • syringe with some silicon grease to seal eye dropper pen reservoir thread
  • the blue Airmail 55
  • the green Airmail 44
  • the red Airmail 80
  • a free eye dropper to fill pens
  • a free Serwex 101.

Great job again from Fountain Pen Revolution ... pens arrived pre-greased and I liked the care in the packaging, too: I am appriciating Kevin more and more.

 

Pens look like being good quality, I am going to try them starting from tomorrow: if someone is interested in, I will report.

A Lamy 2000 kindly sent by a friend/collector.

...Somehow, it's making me feel like a kid on Christmas morning. :meow:

Pelikan M200 clear demonstrator with XF nib and XXXF artist's nib (Richard Binder). It's supposed to ship tomorrow. I am probably going to be making eyes at the mailbox until it arrives. I also have no clue which nib it'll come installed with, so we'll see! (I hope it isn't hard to swap them out.)

Among others, a mistery waterman from the `70. Should arrive in about a week. Keep an eye on the reviews section..... :ninja:

Three days ago I ordered from a respectable shop in Germany a Montblanc PoA Queen Elizabeth I. And I'm getting impatient, because I'm anxious in handholding and writing with it to find out whether my experiences will concur with others. I truly hope it will differ.

 

With love,

Two Chinese pens, a Hero 612 and a mystery Sorrel.

 

Hopefully I time them right so that the packages arrive at the proper houses over break, I'll be visiting my parents for a couple weeks and then back to school.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..
    • A Smug Dill
      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
