Folks: I have justpurchased a Geha pen on E-bay. I have been told by one of the other bidders that this pen uses a non-standard cartridge which is not made anymore. Does anyone know where I might be able to find some cartridges for this pen? Actually, I'd prefer a convertor since I prefer to...

hi, answer if you can read this please! what if you can't read it? g

I have found that I prefer thinner bodied pens. I have a Cross Century II that I like, but the M nib is a bit broad for me. It's been at least six months since I bought a pen, so I would appreciate a recommendation for thin bodied FP's. I already have a couple of Rotring 600s (an old and new...

Hi all -- I'm repeating my post looking for junker Sheaffer snorkels with triumph nibs. I'll buy in quantity. My last post resulted in only one pen. Thanks. Andy.

I've had excellent sales/support from Ray Price, who had a pen shop in Columbus, OH where I got my first masters. He knew I was looking for 51's to use as writers, and was able to provide an excellent selection at a great price. I'm not sure if the shop is still around (haven't been in OH for a...

Anyone out there care to recommend a dealer for a vintage Parker 51? I'd like to purchase an aerometric in good condition to use as a daily writer. The positive comments about the 51 from this group are endless. Unfortunately, I have purchased two of them and had bad luck: The first one was a...

So, the rotring 600 looks like just what I need, but I'm afraid of poking holes in my pocket (or my hip). What can you guys tell me about the gold tipped retractables? They look to be just what I need, but the price jump from the regular old style is going to kill me, I think. I've been looking...

Hi all, Is there a good third party newsserver so that I don't have to go through google to get the newsgroups? Thanks, Richard

I need a Parker Challenger pressure bar assembly for a button filler. Assembly measures 2 7/16 inches ( ~ 62 mm) I will buy all three pieces or just the inner most two pieces, as I have the outside bar that hooks over the edge of the buttom assembly. Sorry for the blurry pic, but maybe it will...

Does anyone know where I can get a bold nib for the Parker Duofold Centennial cracked ice edition pen? If bold is unavailable, a medium would be fine. Any online sites you can direct me to? Thanks. ---------- Angkor Message-id:

I have misplaced my Book, and so I can't find the answer. The pen in question suffers from flow problems even after a flush or two with detergent solution, so I thought to put the nib/section in the ultrasonic cleaner. However I am not sure how the filling system is attached to the section. I...

The site has just come online and will be declared "non beta" later today, as most of the initial problems have been corrected. LUS was THE most innovative penmaker in Italy, with such designs as the Giubileo fountain pen of 1953, that had a nib which could be adjusted to provide 6 different...
