pensachi.com is another supplier of the Pilot 823 demonstrator, after Tokyo Quill. Has anyone purchased anything from them, and if so, how would you characterize their order fulfillment? Timely, easy, had issues?  Thanks!

I have used them before covid. The transaction was smooth and timely.

I would say the most critical factor is that  pens in high demand will be out of stock quick. The pen I was purchasing became out of stock within few hours after  my order. I am finding that this is common for some  pens like KOP ebonite (which has been out of stock for sometime).  They get them in bursts, not in steady stream, and usually the burst is few in number.

 

If the pen you are after is consistently in stock, then my observation above is a non-issue.

Good luck

pensachi is good - i have bought from them before.  as salmasry posted, if they have the pen in stock from the warehouse, time from order to dispatch is around a day.  if time is not an issue there are usually sales events with some modest discounts.  i found their customer service good with emails being replied to etc.

Ditto - happy customer. 

 

The pen I ordered went out of stock, and they kept me updated. 

Shipped a week later than I had planned, but excellent experience.

Email, customer service, online updates to status were all top notch.

Nothing but great experience with them.  Made multiple purchases.

“I admit it, I'm surprised that fountain pens are a hobby. ... it's a bit like stumbling into a fork convention - when you've used a fork all your life.”

      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
