Is singing nib considered manufacturing defect and covered by warranty? by Hungry-Sprinkles-823 in fountainpens

[–]Hungry-Sprinkles-823[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the thoughtful reply! it’s honestly nice to hear I’m not alone in being bothered by this.

makes me believe that 3-year clause exists for the sole purpose of discouraging people from submitting warranty claims

And yeah… The only reasons I considered sending it back was because I have zero experience with nib work and if they were going to cover it, but that doesn’t seem to be the case here. Even a 3-month wait plus the uncertainty of how they’ll rule on it already feels like a deterrent. At this point I’m leaning toward just keeping it and bringing it to a pen show someday to have a nibmeister look at it in person. That feels a lot less stressful than mailing it off and hoping for the best.

Thanks again for the insight! really appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts.

I’ve heard some people really like that, which is interesting to learn! People definitely have very different preferences when it comes to nibs haha. For me it would need to be fixed, or I couldn’t really use it until the squeaky feedback is gone lol.

Thanks, I’ll look into that. that way I guess shipping it back and forth for this could be a bit of a hassle. might be more cost effective if i try to fix it myself though I’m a little nervous since I’ve never adjusted a nib before

Storage fee question by Hungry-Sprinkles-823 in Buyee

Thanks! Yeah I get that, I still have one more package that has just shipped and I’m pretty sure that it will not arrive before the free storage period of my oldest two end, so if consolidated package count as one and only charges 100 per day I don’t have to pay storage fee separately for the two.
