Thanks for that info, but what does it mean, make use of parcel method? How many bottles of ink would I have to order? Not sure what is a big pack...

It's a big box.. Have to check with local post office..

shipping of inks is not allowed... rather no liquid shipping is allowed... until and unless you make use of parcel method which is for big packs...

 

Not allowed to ship liquids out of the country? What's the reasoning behind that law? I'm assuming it's a law.

 

Is it legal to ship, for instance, powdered ink out of India?

On a sacred quest for the perfect blue ink mixture!

mehandiratta, please do tell me if you will be giving away or selling Bril RB again. I remember commenting on one of your posts before on Facebook FPN-P long ago if you'd help arrange a shipment to the Philippines.

 

Daytone Blue-Black as well, actually.

Sheesh - I need to pay a little closer attention to what's going on. I see blue ink giveaway and immediately jump on it. Only now I see that this post was started in March! No harm I guess.

Thank you! I checked Amazon.in and the 2x500ml order of Daytone is just Rs.200. If shipping is possible it's certainly a great deal since that is cheaper than the price of a 30ml refill bottle of Diamine locally. Let's make it happen :)

 

It's sad that international shipping from India is US$3 (at least on FPR) and sometimes free (eBay sellers) but only for non-liquids.

      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..

      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
