Where can I get bottled fountain pen ink in metro-Manila?
Thanks!

Hi Pep
There's always bottled fountain pen ink in National Bookstore (Cross and Parker)
Some branches also have Waterman (there's one in Shangri-la Mall, one in Megamall, and I think they also have one in Podium)
For Montblanc try Rustans and maybe Luis Store in Escolta
I hope that helps:)

Thanks, manilaboyscribe. I got some Quink at the Parker counter in NBS Megamall. I discovered that not all branches of NBS have a fountain pen counter - didn't see one in Dasma Cavite.

Yeah, that is true.
Either they don't sell fountain pens in some branches or they're hidden in a display case in a corner of the store
I've been looking for Super Quink but I haven't been able to find one

Off topic: I saw some NOS Sheaffer pens and Parker pens in another old store
Most of them are a bit in bad shape though (faded gold, tarnished, some scratches)
There was even a Sailor pen that looks nice but unfortunately the converter was stuck inside the pen
I saw two Parker 180s that I kinda like
I'll think about it for a week or so and then maybe I'll come back for one of them:)
They even had Sheaffer school pens
I didn't buy it because I'm not sure if it takes a converter
