RE: different inks.

I can't believe what I'm reading!  I have 2 bottles of Quink blue-black, one MB Blue-black (a very washed out black colour) and one MB Bordeaux.  That's it.

You guys just about need a spare room built onto your house just for inks!  I'm impressed, although I can't say I've heard of a lot of those brands.  I'm a bit limited for choice as far as places to physically buy ink.  Parker Quink is readily available, but apart from that you have to go to the one specialty pen shop in Adelaide if you want MB or Sheaffer.

Does ink travel okay across the world?  I'd say if I wanted some of these brands you commonly use, I'll need to purchase it on the 'net.  I don't want them to break in transit  censored.gif

Talk to Sam or her husband Frank at pendemonium.com. They'll get you set up with all of the ink you can handle. Properly packaged you can ship just about anything safely. I know dozens of folk outside of the US that only buy their inks & supplies from the states because like you their selections are way too limited.

If you haven't gotten on the Noodlers or Private Reserve train yet.... bub, it's time to get yer ticket...lol.

You simply won't believe your eyes when you see how deep, rich & just flat out amazing these inks are. Noodlers will run you a few bucks more than Quink & MB but it's sooo worth it. If you want a BLACK ink, get The swisher/Noodlers Midnight, Aurora Black or Basic skrip jet Black. any of these is better & darker than the quink.

Honestly I'm not much of a quink fan because the colors always look washed out to me.

Your right. I'd forgotten about Chuck's site. He's usually got some great buys in his clearance spot.
