You rotters.
I pulled the trigger on this NOS Parker 45 this morning.
I have been using Jotters for far too long......
Mind you - the people I work with think Im suave and sophisticated for using an orange barrelled Jotter - they will think i have become a life peer if I start using the 45!
nice one :icon_razz::icon_razz:
Very well done

Now they have 100 colours... obviously N_A's opinion isn't shared with the ink-buying public
One bottle of Omas brand sepia has landed too.
Another retailer of note:
www.writehere-uk.com - they have an actual shop in Shrewsbury - so I may innocently suggest a trip to Shrewsbury to SWMBO next time we're at her mum's

Gosh could 'pen of the day' rival the SOTD thread?
I too used a Parker 25 through poly and into work, but it finally gave in and the barrel collapsed. These days the pen I use daily is a Waterman with a medium nib, and Quink dark blue ink . The Waterman refillable cartridges are really good and show no sign of wearing out after 7 years.
Can't beat a good fountain pen I say. Gives one an air of authority at work.

Just clicked on ebay and bought myself a Lamy Al-Star in blue.
Looking forward to using a fountain pen again after about 15 years with a biro.

I have 2 very sheaffer pens, both require carts that aren't made anymore, I've searched high and low to no avail.. so they're now stuck in a drawer.
So because of this I went all mad a few years ago when I had lots of cash to blow and bought myself a brand new Montblanc Meisterstück - Mozart The reason, I wanted a small fountain pen, and I wanted to be able to get cartridiges everywhere. (Montblanc is very widespread in France)
I use a blue-black ink, which looks really nice
Not really a collector, but since I'm a creative writer, I like having a nice tool for the job

Didn't realise how small that was until checking the photo's, very nice pen though.

I dont know if this is a good forum to sell pens on or should i just go to ebay.
I have a Waterman Expert Fountain Pen Black/Gold Trim Model Number S0951660. Bar a few signautres has hardly been used in the 4 years since bought from new for just under £100.
Its nearly mint, with a decent box and used refillable ink cartridge. Now that im getting the vintage razor bug I am just trying to raise my paypal so I can bid on the Fat Boy im watching.
Is it worth making a BST post and does anybody know a decent value.
Thanks

Yeah, I did, but these are special, so the refillable ones don't exist. (these pens are quite thin). I've looked everywhere online, but also scoured local shops.Al H said:
I did uses normal carts for a while by refilling them with a seringe, but that's a bit messy and not ideal.
