How does the pen sale aspect of the show work?
Sorry for late reply. Pens are displayed and described by each seller - at the moment they have two trays max each. The prices are displayed too. These displays are photographs rather than live stream, and uploaded via Powerpoint (or similar) to the Zoom shared screen. If you are interested in a particular pen then you can either contact the seller directly in real time via Zoom's chat function (like the chatbox here a bit, but with the ability to have private conversations as well as public chats), or contact them via their email/WhatsApp or other contact details the sellers provide.
Bear in mind that like any show (from what I've heard) it's first come first served. If I'd had available funds this time around there is no doubt that I would have jumped all over 3 pens - a Duofold in seafoam green, a Waterman's 94 in moss agate, and another 94 in steel quartz.
Pens shown are usually a mixture of vintage and modern, with a slight lean toward the vintage.
Hope that all makes sense!
