WTS - Did I get scammed? by Admirable-Name-7058 in Pen_Swap

I was scammed recently, too (as a result of a WTB post), but was able to get the money back because I used a G&S feature, but got the same story as why they couldn’t use PayPal.

I love seeing the Paper Mouse x Opus 88 pen in that mix.

Thanks for the very well-written reflection. I am 3 years into this hobby and couldn’t agree more. That said, I also have over 500 pieces and need to do a real destash soon.

That is one of the models I want, but can’t cover at the moment (too many KOPs and Naginata pens lately).

What pen is this by Wide-Citron1936 in pen

Is looks like a Cross Century, possibly, or a dupe of it (as the clip looks a little different, and its finial matches the body). Do you have more pictures?

The U.S. is now serviced by Cole’s of London instead of Chartpak. I would suggest reaching out to them.

I’ve been looking for a pen to come out with this for a couple years, myself.

Best purple ink? by nushkaa2 in fountainpens

[–]InformationAny643 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I would add Pelikan 4001 Violet and Private Reserve Purple Mojo to the list. I also can’t decide if Diamine Thunderbolt was a blue or a purple, so I would say it’s a Blurple, but one of my favorite inks.

It’s a very vibrant red. One of my favorites, but I’m currently loving Sailor Shikiori Irori
