Hey everyone!

 

Just wanted to let you know that I started a poll at mass drop for the M200. Please vote if you can and lets see if we can get it dropped and all score together.

 

The poll is called "Baby Pelikans"

Voted. The M200 Cafe Creme is my first choice.

Mine, too. I'll definitely be a buyer if the price is right.

I'm interested at the right price - went with the Cafe Creme. It's my first time using Massdrop and not sure how it all works so I'll be in touch.

Thanks everyone!

 

Massdrop is really cool, I've used it for a Safari and some audio equipment. They just had the M800's for sale for like $350!

 

You can vote without obligation! Their customer service is top notch and shipping is relatively quick.

 

How it works is the more people buy the lower the prices goes. But to get a "drop" started more that 200 people have to vote to gauge interest, so vote up!

 

 

They have a whole section dedicated to writing: https://www.massdrop.com/buy?cat=writing

I voted for the Cafe Creme and the demonstrator. My one Pelikan, a vintage 400, is getting lonely, so I would love to get one of these (if I can afford the final price) to keep her company!

I don't have a horse in this race as I'm not lacking for any M200's but I did throw a vote in for the Café Crème. Hope you guys get the drop. Good luck!

I picked up the M400 last month and it all worked out just as described. It was my first MassDrop purchase.

 

I voted for the Demonstrator and the Cafe Creme. I really want an M200 demonstrator.

I voted for the Cafe Creme (looks delicious) and the Demo (don't have one of these yet).
I already have a black M200. I already have 5 M205 pens, none in black though.

How many black German pens does a girl need? :unsure:

I voted also for the Café Crème. Where does the merchandise come from?

I think the simplest answer to this is "grey market." The way massdrop explains it is they buy "directly from the vendor." Keyword here is "vendor," not "manufacturer." They don't do warranty exchanges and tell you to contact the manufacturer directly for warranty issues.

I have never used Massdrop before. For those who have, are there any reports of problems? The above makes me just a little bit concerned.

Thank you for clearing that up. I had never heard of Massdrop before...but I voted for a Pelikan Cafe Creme 😊

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..
    • A Smug Dill
      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
