Recommended Posts

Thanks for your effort. Do you provide track and trace codes for the consignments per PM to the international buyers?

I have good experiences with tracking International consignments of India Post on http://ipsweb.ptcmysore.gov.in/ipswebtracking/.

That link is what we use when we are getting a shipment from outside india. You can use the tracking number provided by Mehandiratta as a reference with your country postal service once it leaves india. Updates taken by this page is from your postal system only. :)

Sorry for all the info if you already know it.

Thank you Vaibhav for the effort.

Mr. Mehandiratta,

 

Can you provide the tracking code of the international consignment you recently sent to me?

It is very convenient to know when the nib consignment coming from India arrives at the Amsterdam International Mail Center and track its final delivery.

Thanks Vaibhav, the nibs arrived today. The first thing I did today was swapped it with Conklin nib on my Ranga with the #6 Flex.

I have Ranga Model 3 and I swapped my conklin nib with the ambitious flex nib. I have no prior experience of using flex nibs and am meandering my way through it. But I would like to say that if you have a Ranga pen and you are not using a flex nib in it then you are missing out on some of the great joys. Why? The feed on it wonderfully keeps up for practicing calligraphy. I am not saying it doesn't runs dry, it does. But considering the ink that flows through it, it runs dry after some time.


Also Ambitious nibs are "not your typical" Indian nibs. A statement which has been echoed by members in this group often before.


I would like to thank Vaibhav again. Conisdering the amount of work I needed to unpack the nibs, I can only imagine the amount of work he had to go through for each order in packing.

Regards,

Pratik

I received the nibs today. Vaibhav had packed them very carefully so no problems in transit. I will try them in my Airmail pens soon and post the results. But look perfect fine to my taste. Thank you Vaibhav for all the efforts for this group buy and giving me a chance to use these quality Indian nibs which otherwise would have not been possible.

      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
