Sorry to hear

I feel your pain. My Edison pen is currently "lost". Entered the sorting facility and then no updates. Sigh.

=/ keeping my fingers crossed for you. Which Edison did you buy?

Its Parker week for me. These 5 beauties are all coming to me from one friend. She is only a couple hours away so it should be here fast.

I have an extended Mina in a bright cheery yellow somewhere in the mail.

Bummer Jon.

It will probably turn up weeks after you have forgotten about it.

That's what happened with that E. Faber pen that Carlc sent me. I thought it was lost forever, then it shows up 2 months after he sent it.

That sounds beautiful! Hopefully it turns up soon.

My Parker lot arrived yesterday. 2 Challengers, a Thrift Time, a Duofold Junior Lucky Curve red orange, and a 17. The seller also included a few non working and parts pens for me to mess with. More Parkers and such and a beautiful Wearever.

Waiting for my Pelikan M805! Thanks Lisantica!

Most certainly, I can get some the owner sent me when I get home.

A Model 20 in Vintage Green. Its cutting into the Pelican 400 tortoise budget, but I'm still waiting for the right one so....

**Laurie** · November 5th, 2015, 02:05 PM

A Pilot Prera clear demonstrator. I have a Pilot Plumix with an italic nib which is always on my desk and the one I use for general day to day notes etc. I read a very positive review of the Prera and like the idea of seeing my beautiful coloured inks like Burnt Sienna and Bleu Pervenche inside the pen. My first purchase for sometime but have been purchasing a lot of vintage nibs for dip pens. Interestingly I was given a Musselman Perfection by a friend who deals on Ebay. That nib sells for $60. Wow.

**Love** · November 5th, 2015, 02:13 PM

I'm on a cheap pen kick. Waiting on jinhao, and a muji. Along with nib grinding supplies for my first attempt.

**Miss Fountain Pen** · November 5th, 2015, 02:13 PM

I am waiting for a nib for my Pelikan M215. (Not a pen, I know, but close enough.) I was taking some notes earlier today, and the pen just flew out of my hand and landed nib first. So... The pen was in need of a new nib.

I placed my order, and now I wait. And since I was already paying for shipping, I figured I'd order some ink as well: two De Atramentis inks and one Sailor ink.

Edit: I should really be upset about my nib's demise, but to tell the truth, I'm more happy about the opportunity for ink buying than upset about needing a new nib.

Oh, and I'm relieved it wasn't a more expensive pen!

Waiting on a Parker Sonnet and yet another 45!!!

David

**bluesea** · November 8th, 2015, 08:09 AM

Franklin-Christoph Pocket 20 w/ steel Masuyama CI b. The CI will go to the Model 20, and the Pocket 20 will end up with the ef (Au) or needlepoint (Fe).

**gbryal** · November 9th, 2015, 08:44 AM

F-C 20 "Marietta" in vintage green. Waffled over getting yet another JoWo steel nib pen, but I really like the design.

**chemguyethan** · November 9th, 2015, 09:23 PM

I bought a Visconti LE Opera pen that's on the way from Australia! Fingers crossed that it's not held up in customs...

Then... won an auction on ebay today for a Pelikan M800 with the 3B nib!

So now I've got two pens coming my way! Beyond excited to try these bad boys out!
