Hello All,
I have been a fountain pen fan all my life and have always enjoyed the Parker experience. I have a Parker Sonnet, Place Vendome and a vintage Parker 75 that is my favorite. I use it every day. I also have a Snorkel that I use once in a while.
I sometimes write nonsense on a piece of paper just because I like to see the ink go onto the paper. My next pen may be a Pelikan, but I'm supposed to stimulate the American economy, not Germany's.

Welcome. I also have a Place Vendome Fountain pen and I love it! I actually bought it some 20 years ago in the men's department of Lord and Taylor's believe it or not! It's a wonderful pen.
Pelikan makes a great product which is why they're so popular. I have many and I love every single one of them. They also have great customer service.

Hi there and welcome too. I'm looking for a 75 myself. Looking for stimulation? Send me your 75 and I'll send you a Pelikan! (Just kidding)

Welcome! This is a good place to learn a lot.
I've almost always had a Parker Duofold or Sonnet as my "best" pen. In the last few weeks I bought a Pelikan and a Sailor. Either will be a wonderful writer (dare I say an improvement on the Parker? I found it so). I heartily recommend stimulating the Japanese economy. I love my Sailor.
Again, welcome

Hello and welcome to FPN. Kick off your shoes and have a stroll around the grounds. There is lots of good information as well as people willing to share information. Heck you might even pick up a pen or two at the Marketplace.
Once again welcome.
