Two weeks ago I purchased an M200 Demonstrator. I've been using it daily and have been continually encountering problems getting the ink flow started once the nib touches the paper. It involves me retracing the first stroke of the pen. The nib seems to not like the down-ward stroke as I make the first movement to write my name. Once I go back up, the ink flow is there and I can finish the word. The ink flow will also stop during circular movements, such as for "a" or "o." It is annoying and yesterday I went back to the shop and they replaced the nib. Today the pen is doing the same thing as before. I also switched from green ink to black ink to see if that would make a difference and lightly rinsed with cold water, no soap. When I compare this to my other Pelikan and my Retro51, both of then have immediate ink flow when the pen touches the paper. If you could offer any advice I'd be appreciative. I made a video clip <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w_ereTgqxLI> with my iPhone and hope you can see what I am talking about, I also took a still and underlined the letters the pen/nib had difficulty delivering a flow of ink. Any advice would be brilliant! Cheers.
