For Christmas my brother got me the vac700r iris pen that I asked for has been on my wish list for quite a while, the only problem is he accidentally order it with a extra fine nib instead of the medium that I asked for. I have been looking and can only find replacement nibs that don't have the iris coloring on the nib or ring right before the nib.

Does anyone know if there is any way to get replacement nibs with the iris coloring just so I can have it all matching

Thanks in advance for any help

Thanks

Assuming the pen has not been used have you tried asking the retailer that it was purchased from if they will exchange the pen for you as the purchaser bought the wrong one by mistake?
As far as I know there is no availability of replacement nibs with iris colouring from TWSBI. Only those purchased with the pen will have that colouring

Surprisingly the EF isn't nearly as bad as I expected I would just rather have fine or medium and now I'm starting to like medium more since you can see more sheen or shading when doing the MIs and most of the inks I have on my wishlist are sheening, shading, or shimmer when I finally have the money.

I figure if I can't buy the iris nib I will just have to get the regular steel nib once I can spare the money.

I bet Goulet Pens would have swapped it for you if you had asked them straight away before using it. For me the Iris pen without it's own Iris nib wouldn't have been an option but each to their own. :)

A couple years ago my father bought a very nice home theater that had a sound bar, 2 satellite speakers, and subwoofer. When he set it up the wireless satellite speakers didn't work and to this day they have just sat there doing nothing.

Normally we just give cash or gift cards but this one time he actually wanted to buy it for me which I greatly appreciate and still love the pen. The one thing I do like about the EF is I usually write kind of on the small side and out of my 6 pens it's the only EF

Why don't you write directly to twsbi and ask? I had several problems with my TWSBI and he was more than helpful :)
