South Carolina Pen Shops?

[Thomaswann]

I live in the West Columbia area of South Carolina and I have not seen one store that sells good fountain pens. It's even hard to find pilot varsitys. Is there anybody in South Carolina that knows of anywhere that sells good pens and ink?

Closest is probably Origami Ink in Asheville, NC. There is a Montblanc store in SouthPark Mall in Charlotte, NC. I usually wait to attend a pen show.

I live in Pawleys Island and just returned from the D.C. Fountain Pen Superstore. We have a dearth of pen sellers in S.C. but I make a point of attending at least one pen show a year to look and hold pens. I would suggest either the Atlanta Pen Show or the Raleigh Pen Show as both are good. May I suggest Total Fine Writing in Atlanta...good retailer with a lot of pens.

I live in Columbia and haven't been able to find any worthwhile pens shops in the area (or any for that matter). Any time I travel for work I try to find a pen shop but that's the closest I can get. I'm still new to fountain pens so I'd love to have a local place to learn and try out new things.
