    Ordered a Lamy Studio (black) from endless pens, and a bottle of ink (forgot at the moment. Pretty excited to try it out.

    I found a Nakaya Decapod heki-tamenuri at a dealer in Tokyo for a great price. Weak dollar, weaker JPY.

    It's coming by slow-boat, maybe two weeks away ... I'm looking forward to hold it, ink it, and enjoy!

    Still waiting on that MB 149 Calligraphy model. I’m thinking maybe February now.

    I’m also waiting on a Hundred Year Pen. The nib looks promising even if it’s attached to a dodgy celluloid Hundred Year Pen. It’s currently visiting postal facilities in and around Chicago, and it still has to do the customary tour of Brooklyn. I knew it was bad when this one from E Ontario went west through Chicago.

    Celluloid, or Lucite?

    Celluloid. It’s all about the nib. From the pictures it looked like a double broad stub.

    I've wanted a rotring 600 or 800 rollerball for a while. Couldn't decide which one so I ordered both after seeing Amazon had the black 800 for $35 after discount, effectively making the 600 and 800 the same price.

    I got a little wild and ordered three pens over a two day span...

    Pelikan M205 Moonstone, M nib. I've had my eye on this one for two months. I love anything glittery/celestial etc.

    Pelikan M205 Blue Marbled M nib. I've seen Ptero post photos of this one a few times, & blue's my favorite color so here we are.

    Jinhao Chainmail F nib. I really don't know anything about this type of pen! It was $16 on Amazon, and I just wanted to give a less expensive pen a shot. There seem to be plenty of budget friendly modern pens out there, so I figure what's the harm? If I don't like the nib, it should be able to be switched out. Plus I just adore the look.. it's really edgy.

    Uh oh, be aware that the USPS tracking system is overwhelmed. Some of my tracked parcels, coming and going, have been in limbo for two weeks now.

    Would you perhaps please divulge the name of this Nakaya Tokyo Dealer?

    I am waiting for my first Wancher fountain pen with a steel nib. With the coronavirus pandemic new pens have to fit my budget. Their recent sale really made all of the difference.

    Communication with Wancher has been very good. This should be a new experience. Maybe I will have to review it after I receive it.

    FYI for those of you waiting for goodies dependent upon delivery through the USPS, this was in my email this morning because I am tracking several packages:

    I have a couple of Bock nib units that I'd like to try out with this Moonman M800 that is making its way to me from China:

    I purchased a stunning green marbled Sheaffer Vintage from Ron M gold plated prelude nib. I have a matching pen in burgundy that I reach for all the time.

    Let me think:

    From Fountain Pen Recycler, a Mentmore in gray snakeskin and a Conway-Stewart in blue marble.
    From Atlas Stationers: A Parker 51 Deluxe in Plum.
    From Ebay (different sellers): A Parker Pastel Lucky Curve in Coral; an unnamed BCHR taper cap eyedropper fill with an embossed gold overlay barrel, in need of crack repair on the cap. I'll send her off for repairs once I receive her.

    I think that's all at present.

    I just received an Edison Newark in Lumiere (a bright orange) from Goldspot. With all the gray snowy days of late, I'm finding it particularly appealing.
