Hello All!

 

Has anyone dealt with Altman Luggage recently?  I tried using the mobile version of their website to order something and couldn’t get it to work.  I found them on Amazon also, but the review ratio was a bit spotty.

 

I know they’ve been around for years, but I’ve never dealt with them.  So…any feedback?

 

Thanks!

WANTED:

Indian Ebonite

(esp. Ratnamson/Ratnam)

I had two purchases with them over the years.

 

One of them went smoothy. The other was for a Pelikan m101n Lizard I tried to purchase about two years ago from them. The model was out of production at that point, but showed it was available from them online. Anyhow, I received a message two days later, saying that the pen was actually out of stock. Refunded asap too.

Forgot to mention that Altman's prices for pens are a bit on the high side. So maybe shop around to see if you are getting the best price for the item you wish to purchase.

      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

      My notes and advice on fountain pen cleaning

      @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
