What pen are you waiting for in the mail?

Recommended Posts

I'm waiting for a Sailor 1911 Standard purchased new on eBay and an Esterbrook J purchased here in the classifieds. The Esterbrook is my first used, let alone vintage pen purchase so I'm excited.

Waiting for my new Pelikan M800 Brown Tortoiseshell Special Edition!

 

Me too! :thumbup: from Germany.

 

But Deutsche Post / DHL is (bleep). Does anyone know how to actually track a package with them? :glare:

I'm waiting on one and a half pens myself - a 1943? Parker Azure Blue Vacumatic I sent out for restoration the last week of November, and another matching blue Vac barrel I sent to the same restorer in February to have its ruined filler removed.

 

The thing is... the Azure Vacumatic was really for my wife. She doesn't quite understand the allure of a good pen, so I sent it out hoping to give it to her for Valentine's Day if at all possible. The ruined barrel was for 'my' pen, as I thought when I bought the ruined Vac we would have a matched set of pens.

I'm waiting for 5 Esterbrooks, I American, to hopefully show up. They have been MIA for a month now from the Post Office.

God is my Strength.

I'm new to fountain pens but I've been bitten by the Lamy bug recently (after leaving my white Lamy Joy and fell in love with it) and have the following ordered all within the matter of 3 days :embarrassed_smile: :

 

 

- Lamy Safari Green with EF nib

 

- Lamy Safari Pink with F nib

 

- Lamy Al-Star Pearl with EF nib plus convertor

 

- Lamy Al-Star Black Purple with 1.1mm nib plus convertor

 

- Lamy Safari Aquamarine with F nib

 

- Lamy Al-Star Rapsberry with M nib

 

I've never had any Safaris or Al-Stars before, but from reading and watching the reviews I'm totally in love with them! I'm so ashamed of myself :ltcapd:

 

Did you find the aquamarine Safari for a reasonable price somewhere? I so want one, but the prices on ebay are just too high

 

I am waiting for the neon yellow Safari I ordered today

I've got a Waterman Hemisphere ballpoint (sorry, it's for my sister--i swear!) that should be delivered tomorrow if Atlanta doesn't shut down because of a little rain storm (traffic was a zoo today). It's for my sister's law school graduation.

Currently trying to sell a Pelikan M400 White Tortoise. PM if you're interested. :)

      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
