Hi Pep

There's always bottled fountain pen ink in National Bookstore (Cross and Parker)

Some branches also have Waterman (there's one in Shangri-la Mall, one in Megamall, and I think they also have one in Podium)

For Montblanc try Rustans and maybe Luis Store in Escolta

I hope that helps:)

Thanks, manilaboyscribe. I got some Quink at the Parker counter in NBS Megamall. I discovered that not all branches of NBS have a fountain pen counter - didn't see one in Dasma Cavite.

Yeah, that is true.

Either they don't sell fountain pens in some branches or they're hidden in a display case in a corner of the store

I've been looking for Super Quink but I haven't been able to find one

 

Off topic: I saw some NOS Sheaffer pens and Parker pens in another old store

Most of them are a bit in bad shape though (faded gold, tarnished, some scratches)

There was even a Sailor pen that looks nice but unfortunately the converter was stuck inside the pen

I saw two Parker 180s that I kinda like

I'll think about it for a week or so and then maybe I'll come back for one of them:)

They even had Sheaffer school pens

I didn't buy it because I'm not sure if it takes a converter
