Recommended online Japanese pen retailers?

[SoulSamurai]

Does anyone have any recommendations for Japanese webstores that are easy to use for non-Japanese-speakers, sell fountain pens like Pilots, and ship internationally (hopefully without overcharging for shipping)?

    Try JetPens, a US based webstore that specializes in Japanese stationery and ships to most countries. If Oman (going by your flag) is not listed, they request an email to see if they can ship to you. They’re wonderful, I buy from them regularly.

I am familiar with Jetpens, they are great, but I'm not in U.S. and shipping is becoming an issue. For that and other reasons I am trying to buy my Japanese supplies directly from Japan, rather than having them shipped halfway around the world then turned around and shipped halfway back.
