    Cool TigerPens Pilot MR giveaway - till 30Nov2012

    http://www.tigerpens.co.uk/blog/pilo...ving-one-away/


    The MR comes in fountain, gel or hybrid ballpoint and is available in sleek black, champagne or silver. All come with a Middle Ring bearing a simple design.


    And one of you is going to be writing with one of these pens very, very soon.
    All you have to do is leave a comment below telling us which of the Pilot MR pen range that you would like to have. One winner will be randomly selected to win the pen of his or her choice. The contest ends Nov. 30 and the winner will be announced the next day.
    The MR appears to be the same as the Metropolitan as seen on the GouletPens Site.

    Good luck in the draw. We'll all need it as I see John the Monkey has entered.

    Thanks Bogon. I'm on a winning streak so maybe it will strike in the Texas region of the US. Just won an iPad Mini and a 11"x14" canvas print.

    Congratulations you're running hot. You've got to be in it to win it.

    How do you like the iPad mini ?

    Just won it over the weekend and gave my shipping info to the person running the giveaway. I expect to have it in a week or so.

    Thanks for the heads-up, Bogon07
    The pen in question is also known as the Pilot Metropolitan in North America, no?

    Maja, the MR in UK looks identical to the Metropolitan in USA to me. Along with a similar colour range.

    Goulets are still showing plain gold or silver as available.

    It appears likely the UK pens may only have one type of band per colour according to PilotPens EU and CultPens.
    Black - Plain
    Silver - Dots
    Gold - Zigzag

    I should rephrase that. I meant the black-dots.

    Yeah, I entered three different contests this month and won zilch. My husband got a total of 4 scratch & win lottery tickets for his birthday and won on 3 of them! I did, however, find $14 in an old coat of his I'm donating to a charity that helps homeless people

    Maja, maybe you should have made your husband enter the contest also.

    Okay, so the hunt continues. Goulet's have the gold in stock. Meh.

    The light gold or champagne colour isn't too bad.

    On Writetime the Goulet's said they ordered more in.
    I think the biggest worry is Pilot raising the price because there is such a demand for these pens.
