A pen friend showed this card. It seems that if you buy a Parker Duofold centennial pen in Parker official shoppe in 1990s, they can offer you a Parker Platinum Card, which has a ten-year valid period.

Does Parker have such a service at present? Maybe Parker can offer you a membership card if you buy a Duofold :D ?

Where is the card? Can't see the pics.

 

Me either. I clicked on the little blue question mark box on one of the image spaces and got a popup window of a spinning counter. :-(

I wonder if the problem is that the OP is too new (only 9 posts). The moderators and admin have, I think, set it up for a minimum number of posts to thwart spammers.

By "Platinum Card" do you mean a platinum-level limit credit card? I'd love to see a credit card with a picture of a fountain pen on it. That way it would be even more special to use an FP when I sign the receipt.... :thumbup:

Hah! This is what it looked like, and the text from the booklet describing the "privileges".

For love of it. And yet not waste time either.

If they do, I certainly haven't been on the list of people they offer them to, despite buying a Duofold. Doubt that I'm one of the people they want to sell to any more: I want a really good pen, not a status symbol whose secondary function is to write.

 

Regards,

 

Richard.

      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.

      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
