Tuesday Morning Sale May Include Fountain Pens

[pennut]

I talked to a sales person at Tuesday Morning and he said the sale that begins on Sept 1 will include pens. Not totally sure this is reliable information but I have purchased some great pens at Tuesday Morning sales. Just wanted to let folks know about this possibility.

Tuesday Morning is an outlet seller of close outs, overages, etc. Periodically they have great bargains, but they sell out quickly and which store gets which stock is one of the mysteries of the universe.

 

6 years ago I got a load of Shaeffers for great money. This past year they had Waterman, but only BPs and rollerballs at the local shop. Occasionally Parkers surface.

Sweet. I have 2 on the way home from school. I'll definitely be checking these out. ^^ Thanks for the heads up.

At the nearest Tuesday Morning store to me, I learned that "Bill Blass" fountain pens will become available Saturday, BUT already in stock were two Waterman pens, a Phileas F nib for $20 and a Hemisphere M nib for $40. The F nib Phileas came home with me. Thanks to Pennut for the heads up.

Bill Blass down here and the only pens currently in stock are ballpoints, both Parker and Waterman.

Where do they keep these pens? I checked one of the shops today since I had a 6hr gap between my classes (yeah, I'm that crazy) but I couldnt find any pens.

front counter, glass case.. Only an expensive Parker with a Very scratchy nib at my local TM.

I visited 2 stores in my area today and they both kept their pens near the cash register. One store had them locked in a display case (nothing but Parker 100 rb's). The other store had them just lying on a shelf. This particular store had Parker 100 rb's & fp's, plus Phileas fp's. I was told pens were not part of their sale, but purchased a Parker 100 w/ XF nib for $99. Not a bad pen, but definitely not XF, writes more like a Western Fine.

Checked mine today, and it was almost all Bill Blass pens, and not a fp anywhere. Bummer!

I stopped by my local Tuesday Morning yesterday, only to find they'd closed down June 30.

I never have figured out how they determine which store gets what merchandise. We have 3 within driving range here and it's always an adventure.

No FP's now at the 2 Madison,WI Tuesday Morning stores. Years ago I bought a nice Sheaffer Balance FP at Odana Road store.

I remember those sales. Eventually selling those Shaeffers and moving up to other brands got me started...

no joy at my local TM.. salesperson collects fountain pens.. that the scratchy nibbed Parker was sitting in the locked case, was telling.. not my cup of tea either.
