I did not trust the bags after opening. I had some empty bottles that I used and placed an order to Goulet Pens for empty ink bottles. They sell them for under a dollar. I've been so happy with all the new ink! Lots of fun new colors and they seem to do well in my pens.

The bags are supposed to be durable and to maintain a good seal - I haven't had an issue storing them in a shoebox in a drawer, and decanting 5ml at a time into sample vials... Not overly surprised, though, that one or two of these have leaked in transit - and if you can get good bottles cheaply, why not?

I don't think it was a transit issue. They were in fine fettle when they left my house after arriving from Australia. I suspect it might have been that old culprit, screwing a shallow and minimally threaded plastic cap onto the opposite plastic spout, and there was a bad seal and the rest is crimson history.

Breathe. Take one step at a time. Don't sweat the small stuff. You're not getting older, you are only moving through time. Be calm and positive.

No, it was not a transit issue. They all arrived intact. I discovered this when I went to get more ink from them.

 

Fair enough, thanks for the correction - I don't really want to transfer mine if I don't have to, but will keep a closer eye!

      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
