Should I Have Purchase This Deskset?

Greetings Estie fans.

 

I saw this desk set in a shop when I was heading to the Chicago Pen Show last Fri. before I went to the show on Sat. Me a Parker person always learning about the other pen brands out there. Desk base on the reddish side. Should I have picked this up? I think the set was only $28. Maybe when I stop in the shop later this fall if it is still there I'll buy it.

 

I did buy a Estie dollar pen [ green ] for $15 in another shop on Fri.http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f239/Jotteraddict62/021_zpsk4igjqxu.jpg

Is that a burgundy pen? For $28, that's a decent price on a colored desk set with a colored pen. Doesn't everyone need another desk set? ;-)

OK The next time I stop in that shop I will buy it if it is still there in Sept. I only go to that shop twice a year. In May as I head to the Chicago Pen Show & in Sept. when I go to the Nascar races near Joliet Il.

You're out of luck.

Murphy says by your Sept trip, someone on FPN will have bought it.

      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
