I like my VP, but it's a little fat for me, I think, and I expect a Decimo might be just about right. But, they don't seem to be widely available in the U.S. - can anyone recommend a good place to look (other than eBay, which I do keep an eye on)?

Thanks!

If you still want to take ebay into consideration, do look at the offerings of the eBay seller "engeika" from Japan. Currently he has an eBay store too.

After nearly 20 transactions with him, I would recommend him to anyone without the slightest hesitation thumbup.gif . Price, service and products are top notch smile.gif

You can get them from www.jetpens.com for $170 shipped.

Of course, Shahrin is right - you can get them for much less by winning an eBay auction. If you bid $110 you have a good chance of winning. If you snipe that amount, even more certainty. The going price has been between $100 and $110 + shipping. However I have seen them go for much higher and much lower than that.

Hi Chud, nice to "see" you! If you don't feel like waiting for an auction to end, I often see a buy-it-now on ebay for $122 plus around $16 shipping. (Is that one Pensinasia?). Anyway, it's an option and a bit better than $170, although people here seem very pleased with JetPens service. Just my $.02, and good luck to you. I won mine on ebay (seller Sakura_Zeppelin) a few months back, and I was happy with the service (it came from Japan) and am thrilled with the pen.

Perhaps Richie at cyberpens in the UK can hel. He sells Pilots and ships free. (I'm an extremely satisfied customer, too!)

Got mine with no trouble from Ujuku Pen in Japan and very satisfied customer.

I received a Decimo for my birthday a little over a month ago. My mom bought it from melpens.com - great customer service and super quick shipping. She showed me her email correspondence with Mel and was pleased with how friendly and prompt her experience was. Highly recommended.

I may have paid a little more, but the transactions have always been fast and courteous with Ujuku. I don't have the decimo, but I have bought 4 other pens from them (3 of which were VP's).
