I've added a new feature to The Writing Desk website. The ink pages now show not only price and volume of ink (as they did before) but now price per ml. Please let me know what you think of this new feature.
Browse fountain pen ink by brand and range - The Writing Desk "Col-o-rama"

Thanks for looking,

Martin

A great feature, and one - as anyone who's seen the recent discussions will know - that many will be pleased to browse.

Also, another reason to bring my next order to TWD. Thanks!

That's basically the most amazing method of cataloging inks that I have yet to see.

Shame I'm not in the UK, though :\

As a non-UK TWD customer I want to add to this that their shipping charges are very reasonable, their shipping prompt and their overall service excellent. So there's no need to hesitate to take advantage of that fabulous selection of inks (or other stuff, for that matter). The new web-site feature seems like a very good idea, making it even easier to keep track of the myriad options available.

Standard disclaimer: No affiliation, merely a satisfied repeat customer etc and so on.

That is a nice feature. It reminds me of one of David Pogue's blog entries where he compared the price of gasoline per gallon to the price of other products per gallon:

I know this isn't pen ink, but for comparison's sake:

HP 02 Black Ink Cartridge, 16 ml $18 online = $4,294.58 per gallon.


Google says that is $1.13/mL
