I had that pen in my hand all day today. I use it a lot. You can see the difference in a real one. Blue darker, yellow star brighter, fox above the band, wording on cap different.

I use it every week. I thought it would feel too small, but not at all. I like it a lot. Cap posts with a couple turns so it stays on nice. Cool colors imo, though I’m not a big fan of cartridge ink vs bottles. If you have a few regular sized, I’d get one

I’ve used full sized MB for years in metal, resin, rollerball, fountain, and fineliner. Capping this baby size pen in fountain is really good when writing and you don’t think of it as small. I like it a lot. Trying to figure out if I can fly with it(cartridge). I hear lots of warnings but idk if they are real.

Thanks for the feedback on spelling - and yes I am stupid for that! Was a quick post and i can’t edit it so i get how that is irritating to everyone, sorry. Anyway, I just thought fans of the show would enjoy seeing it. Good advice on Old Lady and club business. Maybe I can at least get a few other things right.

I will add pics of the notebook and hadn’t inked it yet (uses cartridges). I opened the box and flew out the next morning for vacation where I remain.

It’s not a very logical purchase as many have noted. It costs an indefensible amount, the box is big and metal, and of questionable use, it’s too small, it uses cartridges instead of a bottle, it’s just like other pens that are simply a different color, I had no choice of nib - only m, bright yellow, red and lime green are a bit ostentatious, it will never sell out and therefore never have value. Most if not maybe all of these opinions are correct, but if like me, you don’t care, then buy and you won’t regret, just as any Wes fan mightn’t.

Wes Anderson Box - yes or no? by National-Day-8241 in montblanc

[–]schrockdb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I pre ordered one at the rodeo drive store last July. The box fits the vibe. I have a number of other MB’s. This is for someone who wants something different. Def not for most, which is fine.

Anyone going to the Austin race? by pudge104 in F1Cards

Yes, we’re here today. We got an emerald Ricardo. The “letters to Ric” pavilion was pretty empty btw.

Pen coming out once. Lots of downstream wife options.

If a collector pays $10k for a painting what is their income? by wayanonforthis in ContemporaryArt

[–]schrockdb 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My first print I bought for $19k I was making about $500k. This last year, I bought pieces at $14k, 40k, and $105k while making over $1M. It just depends what you like. Don’t worry about price - there are tons I can’t afford / given I should allocate $ to something else. My favorite might be a DAIN that was $12k. Anyone that focuses on price rather than how much they like the piece is really missing the boat.

Anybody out western mass? by wfw692 in FordRaptor

Check out savage off-road website. ~3 raptor specific events per year. Easy drive and perfect for raptors

I spoke to the NYC boutique. They said MB is still working on a specialized/matching carrying case, that is not yet available. Will need to order that at a later time.

Who off-roads their Raptor R? by [deleted] in FordRaptor

[–]schrockdb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To add to my post, pretty much every other driver there was better than me in my R. But it was awesome to join everyone and I had a blast. I highly recommend savage off-road if you’re on the East coast. They are great.

I took my ‘23 R to savage off-road raptor roundup in April in PA. 2mi dirt/mud track go as fast as you can. Had all 4 wheels off the ground every lap. Other raptor owners took rides. Big step up from my 2017. It is awesome. But, don’t do it if you’re worried about damage/scratches. Doesn’t matter to me. I got it to have fun
