Strange brands that are not as widely known would be neat too: e.g. Organic Studios, Akkerman, etc... Let me know what you'd like and what you have and we can work out a trade. Just PM me.

Dillo Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 Hi, FYI, I'm still distributing these vials, so let me know if you need them via PM or other means. They are still 10 cents a piece, I'm located in the US, and I don't earn anything from these. We just want people to enjoy trying new inks. It's certainly helped me find some of my favourite inks. For the past year, I have been a few hundred miles away from my stash of vials, so some orders have been slow in coming, and I apologise for that. My vials are going to be once again close by so that I can ensure that you get them all as soon as you can so that you can start trading inks right as soon as possible. Dillon Stolen: Aurora Optima Demonstrator Red ends Medium nib. Serial number 1216 and Aurora 98 Cartridge/Converter Black bark finish (Archivi Storici) with gold cap. Reward if found. Please contact me if you have seen these pens.Please send vial orders and other messages to fpninkvials funny-round-mark-thing gmail strange-mark-thing com. My shop is open once again if you need help with your pen.Will someone with the name of "Jay" who emailed me through the email system provide me an email address? There was no email address provided, so I can't write back.Dillon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Hall Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 These new posts reminded me that I got some vials recently (thanks KCat) and meant to post a note here.... I'm mostly looking to try Blue-Blacks, I'd like to find a good green and I always want to try any blue I haven't tried before. I'd like to try any of the Noodlers waterproof inks besides black....John I like very much the Diamine blue black 1864 (either the standard or anniversary bottle) as well as for greens the Diamine Safari Green and the Private Reserve Ebony Green. Both greens quite different but both have their charm. -RH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
