Prejudice Against Noodler's Ink

[pajaro]

I have used several of the Noodler's inks. No issues, it seems economical.

I have read some of the rants and articles by pen repair persons about Noodler's damaging pens. They don't seem to be able to present proof positive that Noodler's caused the damage in each case, but they have a hunch Noodler's is the cause. In some cases, like ruined sacs, there have been defective sacs on the market. How can they prove that's not the cause. Then came the "boutique inks" statement. The Pelikan people threw that at me about using non-Pelikan ink in their pen, causing the section to become unglued. It's easy for repair people to accuse the ink of being the problem. I say poor materials and/or poor workmanship is the issue.

There's about a snowball's chance in hades that I will buy any Pelikan ink.

These arguments blaming the ink are posh, tosh and gibberish.
