    Default PIF: Oxford Campus A6 Notebook

    Today I would like to offer a small (A6) Campus spiral-bound notebook. This is my favourite "office" range of notepapers. The paper is the wonderful smooth, white Oxford Optik 90gsm paper. It is ruled, without a margin. There are 140 pages. The cover is printed shiny thick card. The size is 148 x 105 mm or 5.83 x 4.13 inches. In my experience this paper is really great for fountain pen use.

    Whether you'd like the opportunity to try this lovely paper for the first time, or if you want to add another Optik notebook to your paper stash, then just let me know in this thread. There are no restrictions or eligibility criteria. All are welcome to apply. I will ship worldwide & pay for the postage.

    I will leave this PIF open until ​6pm (GMT) on Sunday 17th August. Winner will be selected using random.org.

    Another great PIF - the more of these that I see, the more I feel like moving to the UK... Not an entry here either.

    All these non-entries; they're very nice, thank you folks, but not quite what I'm expecting. I want this to go to a new home. Anywhere. Worldwide.

    Me too add me please.. Trying different papers was something I never thought I will ever say. FP has made me look at paper in a different way, when I touch it I wonder "Will this paper bleed or feather my ink" what has happened to me!

    I wondered about trying this paper myself as someone recommended it on another forum in refill pad form. However, it isn't available where I live and to buy it online as a small order involves a relatively high small order fee.

    Also, the refill pads are punched which I don't like.

    So I would like to enter if I may please.

    I'm new to the fountain pen world and would love to try some paper. I've been finding the low-quality pads available in the US just won't hold up to FP ink.
