TFPC 2013 Pen Giveaway!!
Permalink Closed


This year, The Fountain Pen Community is giving away a pen from Newton Pens!

 

032.jpg033.jpg034.jpg

 

Shawn Newton of Newton Pens, has generously provided a pen for the give-away! The pen is from his Custom "Medium" Pen line! It’s made with alumilite, and has a #6 Jowo point. This pen has a retail value of $175!! 

 

To help our community, and help offset overdue board costs/expenses, we are going to send this pen to a lucky TFPC member! We are a member driven community, and we rely on member contributions to keep The Community active!

 

To enter the drawing, you simply contribute $10 to the board! Click on the Contribute tab at the bottom of the main board page. You will be directed to the Activeboard donation page, where you can make the donation. A confirm email will be sent to you, and the admin at TFPC (yours truly) will also be notified. A drawing number will then be assigned to you by the admin by email, and this number will be used in the drawing!

 

We will have the drawing on Friday, May 3rd! We need at least 30 people to participate (entries), and donate said $10 amount. You are free to donate more, and you will receive a drawing number for each $10 amount you donate!

 

This give away is open to members of TFPC who contribute said amount to board dues. The admin/mods of The Community (Frank/DWL/Chthulhu) are not eligible in this pen drawing. Adjustments to the the drawing date and/or number of participants are subject to change. The pen is provided to The Community by Newton Pens for the purpose of giving the item to the winning member of the drawing. Drawing will take place, and pen will be shipped to the winning member by Newton Pens. The winner decides the nib type/nib size/clip option(adjustment/additional fees may apply). Any changes or requests for changes and/or adjustments to pen will then be the responsibility of the winning member and Newton Pens.

 

Please refer to The Rules forum topic of The Community for more information and explanation of board policies/regulations. Furthermore, You expressly understand and agree that neither we nor the makers of the Community area software nor Newton Pens shall be liable under any circumstances to you whatsoever for any loss or damage of whatever nature suffered by you in connection with your use of the Community areas.

 

Good Luck!!

Just made a $20 donation. Good luck getting the board caught up on dues. (Crossing my fingers that I win this contest, as Shawn's pens are beautiful and I'd love to have one.)

I am a newbie so have a question. As you may have read I only collect Parker 75's. I got the STF FP and the RMS QE FP  and Bicentennial FP -pen only without boxes. I subsequently acquired them in their boxes. This leaves them spare and would like to dispose of them but want them to go to someone who will appreciate them ratrher than get to speculate. I also have a spare STF BP with box and papers.

Am not wanting to break any rules or post about them without seeking your guidance as to whether this is acceptable.

Thank you for your donation Hamish! Welcome Aboard!

You have an amazing collection! Just thinking about it, and seeing your pics is impressive!

No problem posting them! You may want to set a price range you can accept- or get ready to field a lot of "How Much" PM messages!
