I agree with Tas when he says that Visconti's most likely able to solve the issue if you just contact them and explain the problem. But if I'm allowed the OT, I am named Andrea as well, and I'm a he (it comes from the greek word anhr/andròs - I lack the symbols - and it means "man"). :D Sorry, just had to add it!

I sent a description and pictures of the two faulty parts through a Facebook message earlier this week. No response yet though.

Apologies Andrea. No offence. :)

Silly me. I have a couple of MALE friends called Andreas

(I think the s makes them male and Andrea (no s) makes them female, in Greek)

Shall we start a twin pronged attack?

As Andrea (male or female) has already said to contact him or her if I ever need any help, I could post that a friend of mine is having problems with QC?

Let me know, it's the least I could do.

looks like someone glued a candy drop to the magnet. What the heck

'The Yo-Yo maneuver is very difficult to explain. It was first perfected by the well-known Chinese fighter pilot Yo-Yo Noritake. He also found it difficult to explain, being quite devoid of English.

So we left it at that. He showed us the maneuver after a sort. B*****d stole my kill.'

It's made for those people who chew on their pens. If it's the one with strawberry taste it's very rare. :lticaptd:

It's very difficult to find on e-bay because it's in the special pen candy category. :rolleyes:

Still no response? Kind of wondering how they'll handle this, as Visconti is known to have great customer service generally :)

Sorry, should've updated! Andrea took good care of me and provided me with a US distributor to call. I haven't had time, but I'll let everyone know how it goes.

Excellent!

 

Erm, did you manage to ascertain if was Andrea male or female ?

 

Which of course is essential to the outcome of this investigation :lticaptd:

 

But jokes aside, great to hear! Wonder what'll happen next. I too have been disappointed by their QC, but nothing that couldn't be fixed easily, and I hear nothing but praise for the brand in the field of problem solving. At first I felt worried when I received my first Visconti, but these days I order (pens) from them without any hesitation :)

i think it would look better if they actually cut the cateye or some stone in HALF not 1/3 because it would look hemispherically uniform

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
