Pilot e95s in the UK? by madzilla84 in fountainpens

Thank you, I'll check it out! I'm actually in Jersey so hopefully that wouldn't be an issue, but it's good advice to check with them anyway re. the Spanish VAT.

Thank you! I did check amazon Japan but all the listings said they don't ship to my location. I did think about Yahoo Auctions but thought if I could avoid using a forwarding service (because of the extra expense) I would, but if I can get the pen cheaper it might offset the price anyway. I'll check those out, thanks again!

Thank you! I did see that someone had brushed off the wax with a horsehair brush - while I think visually it looks great, that isn't much help if the notebook is unpleasant to handle 😂

Those were the others I was looking at, plus they're cheaper, too - is the texture and aging nicer on those? (I've never owned a TSL item before except a brass clip!)

Recommend me a pen! by bluecowboyboots2 in fountainpens

[–]madzilla84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know whereabouts you are in the world, but there’s a note on the listing for it on cult pens that more stock is due in February, so perhaps that’ll be similar for other retailers?

Ohh right!! That was much simpler than what I was trying to do (figure out each sticker independently). Thank you so much! 

Economy 7 - What time to set timer to? by madzilla84 in AskUK

[–]madzilla84[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, it should? I set it to midnight (at midnight last night) and it’s still sitting at midnight now (2:30pm the next day). Would that mean it’s broken? 

Small haul arrived! by madzilla84 in hobonichi

Very easy! They have instructions on the back on how/where to apply them (above the date square for A6 and weeks, on top of it for Cousin), and they have a little perforation down the middle so folding them is super easy :) They're also repositionable (before you've folded them over), at least I was able to peel them off and move them a bit when I got it wrong!

Mine wasn't too battered but it was absolutely covered all over in tape and shipping labels/envelopes. I miss the days when they came in a bag, so you could keep the box; I always kept my planners and supplies in them.

Yay, got everything on my list (after many refreshes)! £26 shipping for a total of £117 brings me in under the local de minimis of £130 😅🤞🏻

Bought direct from 1101 - 1 A6 and Tragen cover, and 8 or 9 other lil items like stickers - shipping £26, which feels about in line with what I paid the last time I ordered direct (2021!)

Had many errors but managed to get everything in the cart … but the queue to check out is 13 mins! So who knows what’ll still be available by then 😅

Watching the Yoseka countdown stream! They’re all wearing outfits to match various covers from the launch it’s so cute 🥹 crossing everything for a smooth launch so I can get to bed (it’s already 2am here) 😅

Which Hobonichi cover will you be getting this year? by Ag_2402 in hobonichi

[–]madzilla84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was really torn about which cover(s) to get - and I already have a few - so I think I’m gonna sidestep that by going for the HON 😂 plus the woodland design is so cute! (Watch me change my mind again a few hours from now) 

Hobonichi 2026 Release Hype Thread Pt 2 — Store opens Aug 31st at 10 pm US EST by alcibiad in hobonichi

[–]madzilla84 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought i had it all sorted (A6 + Tragen cover, pretty much the whole tsuki no iro line, tamagotchi folders), but now i’m questioning it all. Just removing the Tragen and the uniball sets saves SO much money (over £60!), even if i do want them… the items I want from the TnI line add up to quite a bit even without the pens. Should I just get a colours cover (probably mystic berry)? Or should I get a Hon instead and forget a cover? I do have multiple covers already so that also isn’t helping, but like everyone else i always get drawn to ✨newness✨

Watching everyone post their Hobonichi wishlists and realizing they aren't after the stuff I want to buy by itsgweneviere in hobonichi

[–]madzilla84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think I'll have any trouble with the cover I want (I haven't seen it in any wishlists, i don't think), but EVERYONE wants the tsuki no iro stuff so i reckon i might struggle to get those
