Pilot Vanishing Point Nibs

[julianrosenberg]

Hope this topic hasn't been covered somewhere I didn't see.

 

Anyone know where I can buy a Pilot Vanishing Point nib? I don't need the entire insides of the pen just a nib.

 

Or, please direct me to anywhere in this forum where this has been discussed.

 

Thanks

Everywhere that I've seen the VP for sale, I've also seen nibs for sale - Goulet, Anderson, even Amazon. If you're looking for a physical store, perhaps give us an idea of where you are?

I think the OP is talking about just the gold nib. I have never seen them by themselves with out the innards attached.

Do you mean gold color or made of gold? I bought a black 18K nib from Anderson Pens. And here they all are, gold and black from Goulet: https://www.gouletpens.com/replacement-nibs/c/294/?sortBy=productName+asc&facetValueFilter=Tenant~Brand%3Apilot

 

And from Anderson: http://www.andersonpens.com/Pilot-Nibs-s/2428.htm

 

...I imagine every place which sells VPs will sell the replacement nibs too, but maybe not. (NOTE: I've never seen just the nib, only the nib unit - if the nib can be removed from that by the end user, I don't know it.)

[julianrosenberg]

To be clear; I'm asking only about the actual removable nib that touches paper on the end of the nib unit. Not the whole unit that most people sell for around $70-$80. I've seen videos of the nib being removed from the unit. Therefore, I assume someone sells them. Any suggestions are helpful.

Ah. Got it. I've never seen those for sale anywhere. Sorry.

Pilot does not sell just the nib. You have to buy a nib assembly to get a nib. Why do you need just the nib? Do you need to replace a nib of a VP that you own? You might just send the nib unit to Pilot Warranty, and they will replace it or repair the nib for you.
