Today I went up to the mall where the MontBlanc store is located and picked up a Meisterstuck Solitaire Doue Signum with an extra fine nib for 40% off retail. The reason it was on sale was because that nib size is not very popular and is being discontinued. Also in the same mall was Paradise Pens and they are having a 15% off sale on fountain pens only. If you buy two fountain pens you get 20% off retail. Well, I couldn't help myself and scored the Namiki Vanishing Point with a medium nib. Now I would like to go back and pick up another MontBlanc FP so I'm going to sit on my hands and contemplate my options.....I will have to take some pictures and post them later!!!

Congrats Leo! The Signum Doue at 40% off is a very good catch.

Eagerly waiting for photos!

Congrats Leo. I picked myself up a Boheme Plat Plated Crystal for 50% off and am thinking about going back for more as well

Leo,

Congratulations! I love x-fine nibs. Is it possible to post a picture? Faith

Congratulations Leo, you have picked up some lovely pens, the discount on the Mont Blanc is wonderful. It would be great to see some pictures when you have the chance!

Great score Leo, looking forward to the pics.

Wonder why they never have MB sales in the UK.

They do sometimes have sales here in Aus. 10% off on selected items.

Those sound great, Leo. I would be drawn to the XF nib myself. Sounds like you scored a nice variety.

emagni · 15 March 2010, 09:20 AM

Congrats and use it in good health!

Leo, that is a stunning looking pen mate

I can't wait to see photos and writing samples from you! You will love the Bordeaux ink as well, it has become my favorite ink

Today, I made my way over to the MontBlanc store and bought my new pen a Solitaire Silver Fibre Guilloche with an extra fine nib. I also bought a bottle of their Bordeaux ink since I like the color a lot. This pen is a dream to write with and I love the color of the ink(has become my favorite). The pen just glides across the paper and I really like the fine line produced by the extra fine nib. I will have to post some pictures as this pen has become my new flavor of the week!!!

shandy · 22 March 2010, 07:53 AM

Congratulations Leo, I can't wait to see pictures and I agree the bordeaux ink is lovely, it has become one of my favorites!
