Pushing the envelope, I'd say.

Is there an upper limit that people will pay for inks, I guess that MB believe that people will pay $71 for 50 ml this year, will they pay $100 next year, or $200 if the ink is a re-release of ERG with a numbered limited edition?
There are people who will pay whatever the brand asks, because they can.

We might be there already Fred, some of these pens are just jewelry, personal taste as always. I can admire the craftsmanship that goes into some of the exotica, but it terms of buying and using some of these LEs, it doesnt work for me. Each to their own.
Never

Well, people did and do pay quite a bit for some of the Sailor inks. But I'm not paying that.

$71.50 LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL they are CRAZY.
Interesting colours and price wise they're on a par with inks from Hieronymous of Switzerland - i'll be keen to see reviews.
What the hell happened to the FPN thread?
I read some muppet saying you would have to be crazy to buy ink at that price, someone else got pi55ed at that comment, saw a joke and then bang - we are on lock down.
Makes you wonder if MontBlanc ......................no it cannot be so.
My other pen is a Montblanc.
And my other blog is a tumblr!
And my latest ebook, for spooky wintery reading:

There were two threads about it running on FPN at the same time, and the usual suspects who never intended to focus specifically on ink were coming out of the woodwork. So Kalessin posted:
"Please keep the discussion in this thread focused on ink. Please do not make personal comments about gullibility, prestige, the intelligence of buyers, etc, as the conversation is sliding towards insults and flamewar."
When I last looked that thread wasn't locked, but the other one may have been, so they could stay on one.
It was cleaned up, locked down, now reopened.
I didnt know what Flamewar meant, to save others the trouble of looking it up
A flame war is a heated argument between two individuals, that results in those involved posting personal attacks on each other during or instead of debating the topic at hand
Some new trolling posters have joined in, why does MB attract the dipsticks of the world?
