I'm not looking to go over about $5, and these seem to be the winners so far.
I'm actually impressed by the prices. I usually get a big bag o' pens from the dollar store.
Is the ink readily available or would I have to go to an archaeologist?

Re: At it Again
I bought two bottles of Quink a while ago (a black and a blue) and still have them. I even divided each into smaller bottles so I could keep ink in my old office and at home and all the jars are still full.
So it lasts a while; and you can get the ink the same place you get the pens.
I usually get a big bag o' pens from the dollar store.
I used to like those, but I've noticed that they almost all now have the goofy click mechanism (where you have to push the clip in to retract the tip). It drives me nuts. I also end up with more pens than I can use and most get lost...

Love your enemies!

Re: At it Again
Apparently Staples carries fountain pens. I'm going to check it out.

Re: At it Again
I don't know if you have Office Depots in Canada, but they also sell fountain pens and accessories. Except they don't sell bottled ink, just disposable cartridges.

Love your enemies!

Re: At it Again
I went with the Hero 3266 360 Gray.
The seller emailed me this morning telling me it had shipped and that it would take 15-45 Chinese days to arrive (USA 10-15 days).
I don't know what that means, but I hope it's here within the month.

Love your enemies!
