Greetings all. While I have been writing in earnest for a little over a year now, only recently have I moved to using fountain pens. I started with a cheap three-pack of medium nib pens from Office Depot (too wet for my taste) and then ordered a Nemosine Limited Fine nib from Amazon and fell in love with it. I know it's still an entry level pen, but it's satisfied me for now...until the plastic at the end of the cap began to chip and break off. I figured with it being plastic it would crack at some point, but not 10 months in. It writes really well, and I like to cartridge system (I picked up a pack of 30 cartridges from Hobby Lobby with a variety of colors to play with).
Now that I got my feet wet, I'm now looking to add to my collection and am not sure where to start. I stopped by a fine pen store and saw too large a selection to narrow down, but I did ask for some advice there and the saleslady let me test drive a Faber-Castell Emotion, which wrote very well. It is definitely on my Christmas list!
For those of you who have much more experience than I, I'd like to get your suggestions on where to go next. I'd like to know what a good pen would be in the $50-75 range, and then in the $75-150 range. (I'm not in the budget to get beyond $150 at this time).
Thank you in advance,
Robert
