That quote was from this thread that I don't want to de-rail any further.
Thanks to my firend Rui, I now have a bottle of the Cult Pens exclusive Deep Dark Purple from Diamine. In short it is almost exactly the dark purple that I have been looking for. At a glance it is black, but under strong light or close inspection it is clearly purple. There is very little shading and it is a little flat (lacking in sheen) but the color is exactly what I wanted. I will not be able to post writing scans until Monday but I had to share my excitement. So far I have only used it in an M200 with .7mm CI nib on Rhodia but it will be going into more pens very soon.
I need to have a discussion with Cult Pens about my shipping address not matching my billing address so that we can come to some mutually agreeable terms. Because not only do I want more Deep Dark Purple, but I am curious about their Deep Dark Green as well.
