WTT: Ink Samples

[mtnbiker62]

Hi all. I'm pretty new to fountain pens and to this board, so I'm still doing some exploring of inks and pens. I like pretty fine nibs and Japanese pens, so shading inks aren't that important to me, but I'm willing to try just about anything. To that end, I'd like to trade ink samples, so if you are interested, get in touch with me. I will also trade the mostly full (minus 2-3 converter fills) of Iroshizuku Tsuki-yo, if the deal is right. Here's my have/want list:

I have Goulet ink sample bottles of Ancient Copper and Scabiosa that I'd be happy to trade with you (I already have bottles of both). I'd love to trade for the Diamine Green/Black and the PR Ebony Purple. Drop me a PM if you're interested. (I'm in Rhode Island, BTW).

I wish I had those colors because I would love to try the ancient copper....sadly though I don't

I have 10 cartridges or PR DC supershow elec blue available. I do not like! I wuld like to try Mass 54th and Diamine Midnight, PR midnight blues. How does this work?

[mtnbiker62]

Thanks for the interest. I'm not a fan of cartridges, though, so I'm going to pass.

Do you do transatlantic trades? I have a lot of ink, mostly in Goulet samples, and I'm streamlining/focusing my stash so I would be happy to swap. Mostly a lot of Noodler's

The postage doesn't really make it worth it...sorry.

[Plume145]

ah, too bad

Are you interested in a sample of Noodler's El Lawrence? Can't get much murkier....

What color is that ink? Black? Green? I can't tell...

Neither can anyone else, lol...

It's a blackish, brownish, greenish sort of motor oil.

Dark 'n' murky.

Kon-peki or Asa-Gao, whichever has less purple tones. Thanks!

[mtnbiker62]

I'll have to look at them...I think of them more as light and dark.

[Sailor Kenshin]

I think maybe the Kon-peki?

Time to trade addresses? PM me! Thanks.

I'd like to try Diamine Salamander. Off of your want list I can trade Diamine Syrah or Rohrer and Klingner Sepia. If you've tried those, some other murky/dark/dusty colors I have are Diamine Damson, Diamine Merlot, J. Herbin Cacao du Brésil, J. Herbin Poussiére de Lune, J. Herbin Vert Empire, Organics Studio Arsenic or Stipula Musk Green.

[snedwos]

I could trade Ancient Copper, Scabiosa and Apache Sunset for Salamander, Alt Goldgrün and BSB. Just need to track down some empty vials (or use up samples).
