I think I got mine for around $10, and they're fantastic pens for the price. A great starter pen. You could also try a Pilot Varsity 3-pack from an office supply store such as Staples or OfficeMax. Best of luck! :)<br /><br />-Derek (ThirdeYe)ThirdeYehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08327965364500972786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1712633197487732847.post-55735722602981913582012-10-22T11:07:01.422-07:002012-10-22T11:07:01.422-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.ThirdeYehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08327965364500972786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1712633197487732847.post-23831172479737605802012-10-22T10:51:40.210-07:002012-10-22T10:51:40.210-07:00Hmmm...

I find the photos so pretty. The handwriting is so author-ish. This makes me want to get my own fountain pen soon. :D<br /><br /><br />-<a href="http://www.williamsdatamanagement.com/?p=disaster-recovery-assessment" rel="nofollow">Ruby Badcoe</a>Rubyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16314434089797506245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1712633197487732847.post-32928985357375588682011-11-29T14:36:55.525-08:002011-11-29T14:36:55.525-08:00Hey Derek, Palimpsest's calling.

Cloudy & gloomy doesn't make for very good natural lighting on a picture of a review. :)ThirdeYehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08327965364500972786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1712633197487732847.post-17399174492406385982011-11-27T18:31:42.946-08:002011-11-27T18:31:42.946-08:00I never could get my scanner to capture ink colors...I never could get my scanner to capture ink colors properly, that's why I switched to a camera + natural light for my reviews. Even then I still need to post-process most of the images because the color on the screen still doesn't match what's on paper.Peninkcillinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00848625062603548050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1712633197487732847.post-78722014253077312952011-11-26T06:08:58.087-08:002011-11-26T06:08:58.087-08:00Nice review, Derek!
