Moleskine Notebooks In Costco

Recommended Posts

Just saw Moleskine notebooks in Costco. It comes in a packet of six notebooks for $20. The label says: designed in Italy, made in Vietnam.

 

I wrote with a Visconti HS Midi fine nib with Aurora black ink and Pelikan M800 fine nib with Iroshizuku Asa Gao and I find both pleasant. Unfortunately, both bled through; could be clearly seen on the back side of the paper. Can only write on one side of each page.

I also found a Moleskine made in Vietnam from staples. It was a red hard cover pocket notebook. As usual for me, a fine point FP did fairly well. Some ghosting, but then I write with everything so it is still good to go among my collection of Moleskine. I always use both sides of the page.

That package of large cahiers is only available in limited areas and sells out quickly, especially back-to-school time. Here in Boise, Idaho, the warehouse had two pallets a month ago, early June, and they were gone in a few days.

I ride a recumbent, I play go, I use Macintosh so of course I use a fountain pen.

Hi there fellow Boise person!

 

Thanks for the heads up on this. I was going to head to Costco this weekend. Saved me a trip.

My fingers are always inky and I'm always looking for something new.  Interested in trading?  Contact me!

Another place to check for Moleskin notebooks is TJ Maxx. I hit the jackpot one day and found some on clearance.

 

I bought three of the 5 x 8 1/4" two-packs of ruled note books for $3.00 per two-pack!

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
