TWSBI FOUNTAIN PEN VAC MINI SMOKE (M)

Lovely pen I am a customer for life!Also, Don't be that guy who orders a beautiful vac pen who then crys when they realize they didn't get a surprise free bottle of ink with their purchase. It's a vac pen they cant just give you a free cartridge, you just spent 65$ on a pen! I know you've got the cash to get a 12dollar bottle of ink don't play with me. If you prefer to receive ink with every pen I would direct you towards Bic. Twsbi is affordable but they are still a high end brand with standards they're not going to give their beautiful ink bottles away for free, and they shouldn't be expected to. Grow up and buy your own ink man-child. The fountain pen community is stained by your presence. We don't need you. Your shifty review of Twsbi reveals you have no taste or discerning eye, go buy yourself a few jinhos and stay there.Down with cartridges and disposable pens!

Pen quality is not bad they should have give some extra plastic nib holdersIt has broken very quickly and nothing replacement

La compré porque la marca tiene fama.El peso y agarre es bueno y el plumín también está bien.Pero el mecanismo de vacío no permite cargar completamente el depósito.Por mucho que se intente, sólo se carga hasta la mitad, más o menos. Lo que obliga a cargarla más a menudo. Parece que es así por el sistema de vacío.Tampoco permite ponerle cartuchos como a otras plumas.Tiende a obstruirse con cierta facilidad. Pensé que podía ser por el tipo de tinta, pero me ocurre igual con varias marcas de tinta que van perfectamente en otras plumas que tengo.El agarrador del émbolo de carga se partió sin motivo alguno.Me puse en contacto con Twsbi, por email.Me pidieron que hiciese el pago del émbolo completo por Paypal.Lo pagué (10$ USA).Me lo enviaron, avisándome que posiblemente tuviese que pagar aduana (viene de Taiwan)Me lo trajo el cartero y tuve que abonar 5,05€ de aduanas y gastos.La verdad es que no estoy muy contento con la pluma.Y más viendo que pagué 78,20€ por ella (aparte de los 15€ de reparación) y en Aliexpress hay otros modelos similares (también de vacío) por unos 5€ y con muy buenas reseñas.

I would think that the Seller might want to make note on the Order page and all other specifications that "ink needs to be purchased separately" - just a THOUGHT... Might not be important to someone who has a home full of ink but for those of us who do not...kind of important to know. Now I have two very nice empty pens without ink.

Nice size. The nib is smooth. But the tines were tight but a little pressure opened them up enough to be perfect.
