    Default Hello

    Hello everyone,

    My name is Brice. I'm a pilot living in Mississippi but will be moving to New Mexico in the next few months. I'm relatively new to the fountain pen community. I only started collecting a few years ago but caught the pen bug quite quickly. I've attained what I believe is a moderately sized collection of all ranges of pen quality and price. I love tools and instruments which is why I found the hobby so intriguing. I also took the time to re-learn how to write...I've always had somewhat illegible handwriting and wanted to improve in that area. In all, I've had a great experience with the hobby.

    That being said, I found that I was collecting for the sake of owning a specific pen for its brand or what others have said about it, rather than its function. I've ended up with a lot of pens that I just don't use. I'm going to be moving in the next few months and hopefully getting engaged so I've decided to sell some of the pens that don't get the use they should. I've taken good care of them as I get just as much enjoyment cleaning and maintaining them as I do using them. I haven't done much research into the used market but I hope to list them for a fair price and that whomever buys them can enjoy them as they should be. I'll be posting a few of them together to cut down on overall posts but they can all be sold separately.

    Thanks for having me here and I hope to connect with some of you soon!

    - Brice
