    Question Where to Buy?

    Hi All!

    It's me Monty again and I was wondering where to buy a Pilot E95S and a Pilot Falcon cheaper than what GouletPens or JetPens sells them at. Sorry if this is the wrong area to post this. I did a bit of research and I found Engeika, Anderson Pens, and many others. However, all of them sold at the same price. So far I found Engeika the cheapest but I hear alot of horror stories from them. Could somebody prove me wrong? I really do want to purchase from Engeika but I don't want to pay then be left in the dark.

    Lastly, do you guys have any suggestions other than the E95s and Falcon? I'm looking for pens with a unique nib and unique writing experience. I really liked the E95s and Falcon for their nibs. Especially the inlaid nibs.

    So apologies if this is the wrong area to post this.

    Thanks,
    Monty.

    There are a lot of very good sellers from Japan on eBay and on Rakuten. Amazon is another good source. If none of them show the pen you want, you can try messaging them and asking for a price. I have always had a good experience with CoolJapan on eBay, but there are many others -- check the ratings.

    I THINK that Speerbob on ebay sells them. I have bought a couple of pens from him with no problems.

    Amazon. Easy returns in case you don't like the pen as well.

    Speaking of which, Amazon does seem very tempting to buy from them. I ordered stuff from there before and they always arrived on time and in one piece though so I think I might scavenge Amazon and decided between Goulet or Amazon.

    Only try Engeika if you have nerves of steel. I will not ever again, I do not have the temperament for it. Lack of communication, takes a long time, may not have it after you order it but have paid. Long time to get your money back.

    Happy Speerbob customer. Usually, I buy inexpensive pens from him, but I also sprung for a Waterman Carene and a MB. The one time there was a problem with a pen (inexpensive Hero Youth), got a prompt refund.

    But I have also bought a Platinum 3776 Bourgogne off Amazon. Either might work.
    My other pen is a Montblanc.

    And my other blog is a tumblr!

    Speerbob sent me a lovely BNIB red coral Waterman Phileas at a competitive price. So a happy customer here too.
