I'd like an EF. I fired off a PM about my details.

 

EDIT: Nevermind, my friend doesn't want one, so I only need one EF pen.

Ok, I have 84 messages in my PM Mailbox. Let me see how many of you I can get sorted out before I have to go to bed today

 

Sorry for the lack of time, but it's the weekend, and I had to give up on my girlfriend's Saturday night plans to even get this amount of time haha

 

I think by the time I get through these orders, i'll probably be halfway done with the presale. I'll update everyone as I go, and i'll post a list of what I have everyone down for when I get a chance.

 

Thanks for all the help and good wishes!

Alright, I cleared out my PM inbox. I will work on orders in this thread before this point in time.

 

I have ~160 spaces left in the preorder. EF and F nibs are the most popular, with M nibs coming in right behind.

 

Thanks for everyone's help and support so far! My PM inbox is clear and I will be completely caught up by the end of the weekend, by which time I think all the pens will be gone.

 

BTW, As we get closer to the "wire", i'll use forum timestamps to determine who the first 300 were.

[Scuttle]

PM:ed you email, interested in one F and one M

Hello, many of you may have followed the threads in which an inexpensive piston-filling pen was designed with community input from all over the world on English and Chinese languag BBSes. See the thread on FPN here and the thread on the newer vacuum filler here (the vacuum filler is still a ways off, we have the piston filler ready though).

 

Anyways, after a long time in waiting (and one Red Dot Design award later), the decision has been made to offer the first 300 off of the production line to users of the FPN. These will be final production-ready pens from the TWSBI Pen company, a company with a long history of making pens.

 

Since you guys are writers, i'll skip to the important parts:

 

Pen Model: TWSBI Diamond 530

 

Pen Trim: The trim that will be available for this 300 piece run will be the clear demonstrator with chrome bits. Here's a picture of mine

Here's a picture of what the final packaging you will receive will look like:

The Nib: The nibs used are Schmidt steel nibs. I like mine. The sizes available here are EF/F/M. There are 10,000 nibs at the factory, so there aren't any limits on what nib you can choose. Also, as to the size, I would say that the nibs are "Western" sized as far as the widths of EF/F/M.

Here's what my nib looks like:

Price: The pens will be sold for $39.99 a piece, with $7.99 SHIPPING, regardless of # of pens ordered. YES, I WILL SHIP TO EUROPE/CANADA. Postage to Canada is $7.99, Europe is on a case-by-case basis.

Payment is through Paypal (cash or credit is ok).

Shipment/Logistics: The pens are expected in May/June. Due to a lack of a firm ship date, this thread will initially put people "in line" for a pen. When I have a ship date, I will send a Paypal invoice for the balance 2-3 weeks prior to shipping so that I can purchase the pens and get everything ready. I will email you when I ship the item, provide a tracking number, and you will receive the package after about 1 week from shipment.

To reserve your place in line, please post how many (and in what nib sizes) you would like. Also post/pm me your email address so I will be able to contact you for invoicing/shipment/etc ATTN: Mods, I hope this thread is within the rules! Please let me know by PM if I need to change anything or if this needs to be moved
