Came Back From Chennai - What I Got

Came back from Chennai, here's what I got :)

The pens are all Gama pens except the first one which I found out was a Baoer Skywalker pen.

 

I got all of the Gama pens from NSC Bose Road, the Baoer was from a store called Variety Pen in Pondy Bazaar, T Nagar. Unfortunately there was a shop I wanted to go to, called Pen Point there but the shop was closed. Perhaps I went on the wrong day.

 

The Jinhao ink (150 rupees) was obtained from the aforementioned Variety Pen, the Camlin Scarlet Red (20 rupees) was actually in a shop called Jinnah Stationery in Pondicherry. The Waterman Absolute Brown (425 rupees) I got from Makoba on Nungambakkam High Road.

 

Nibs were from Krishna Mart on NSC Bose Road as well. Got 1 Wality nib and 3 #5 nibs, all for about 125 rupees.

 

The Baoer pen was 290 rupees and the Gama pens were all less than 200 rupees each.

 

P.S. I was looking for Daytone Blue-Black but no shop had it.

That blue pen at the bottom of the picture looks a lot like my Camlin Cute. Small pen, right?

Seems like you got some really nice ones. And ink, too! Enjoy.

Nice haul.

Daytone blue black and all other shades are available on Amazon India. Which city you are from?

Hyderabad - I know that JK Pen Store has them. And so does Deccan Pen Stores, both are however in Abids which I would rather not go to as it's a bit far from where I live.

 

As for Amazon I'd rather not get huge bottles. 1 60ml bottle of blue black would suffice.

Hi....

I am from Hyderabad too. Nice haul. Where can one buy good quality nibs in Hyderabad. I asked for Ambitous nibs at JK and Deccan pen stores. They don't have them.

      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
