Has Usagiya stopped allowing inks to be purchased online, or is that just for the shop special pens?

The inks are still available online. The latest ink additions to the Usagiya line have been like most--recent--shop exclusive releases: floral; banal.

There are no links on that page to take you anywhere to purchase anything: pens, inks or stationary products.

 

One has to go to the Usagiya page on Rakuten. Though I admit to never using Rakuten.

At one point, I had as many as 10 usagiya colours. Now, I have none. They are boring, nothing special. There are other sailor inks which I did not have, and preferred to get them over usagiya.

I always wanted to try the Blue of Saruga Bay, but sadly these inks are not sold online, and neither Atsu nor White Rabbit can get them. :(

If they are not sold online, and not located in Tokyo, both cannot help you.

I may go to Shizuoka (not soon), but I have no idea of the location of their shop and neither do I have any interest in those colours.

Really? I quite like the look of them! The blue, the green, the pink ... <3

Thank you again for presenting these inks we might never see otherwise. That Cobalt is surely a beautiful ink & despite my surprise I quite like the color of the Peacock, even if I wasn't expecting that, when the swab was revealed.

Agree with BarkingPig. I'm going to have to rummage through the Sailor ink pile to find my bottle of Sailor Jentle Blue. It could be the same as the Cobalt Blue shown here, but it's been a while since I've used it so not sure. And if the Peacock blue is equivalent to Sailor Jentle Blue-black, I should correct that, as it looks quite nice. Not what you'd expect from something with that name.

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

No, they were referring to the orange and brown in the KN Genji line. The three Penlux inks are a couple posts above that.

Just noticed today that Anderson Pens is starting to carry the Kobe inks. They don't have the nearly full line like Vanness, but I imagine they will. 20 inks listed as of now. Same price as at Vanness.

 

Not earth-shattering news, but good news for US ink buyers.

Guys, I walked into Mitsukoshi, Matsuya, Tsutaya and Takashimaya in Ginza yesterday looking for these inks but cant seem to find them anywhere - is it in a specific section, or a different store?

 

I did note however that There is a special edition Kobe ink x Itoya - sepia gold its called. I bought a bottle but have not tried it yet.

      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
