Has Anyone Ordered from Pen Making Supplies

[Fireengines]

Has anyone ordered from Pen Making Supplies, Kits for pen makers, Fountain Pen Parts and more before? Their prices on Aristocrat Pen Kits, that looks like the Jr. Gentleman, are pretty low.

Is the quality there?

I've ordered cartridge pens from them a couple of times. Good parts, quick and reasonable shipping. A thumbs up from me.

Nope, but he should have a word with his site designer. so far I've5 products that the 'add' form is pushed down so far you can't use it.

I just placed my first order with them a couple days ago. Quick response and shipping. Will comment on the rest when it arrives.

I got my order a couple days ago. Quick shipping. Forgot that I did order a handful of slim kits for turning for the troops. They look to be nice. Chrome plating looks good.

Don't know them, but will check them out.

FYI - timberbits still has Jr Gent on sale @ $4 ea for rollerball or fountain in chrome or gold.

FWIW--- I ordered a bunch of fountain pen feeds/holders from them a few months ago. Upon arrival, I quickly noticed that they were low quality and inquired about a return.

He gave me a hard time, and eventually conceded to a return, but charged me a hefty restocking fee.

(My order was $36.95, and I only got $20 back)

Good to know Joe! I was looking at those just today.

 

[turbowagon]

Yeah, they are made from cheap plastic and inflict a death grip on the nib.... i.e., once you install the nib, you ain't getting it out without damaging the feed and probably the nib too.

Looks like the apprentice Jr. Gents that CSUSA sells. If they are the same, the quality is not there...

I have ordered from them for years. They used to be called The Village Pen Shop and then changed their name. I believe that the owner is a member of IAP. I have always gotten good service, quick shipment and I have never had to return anything for any problem.

They are in Austrailiia, whats the exchange rate and shipping? Does it save $?

Dude, look again, they are in AR (Arkansas) not AU (Australia).
I just ordered some cartridge stuff from them today.
I'll give feedback.

 

[nava1uni]

Yes, they are in Arkansas. Quick delivery and service.

Site and subsequent prices look pretty good.

I have ordered from them a couple of times. No problems here. They had fast shipping.

I just ordered and quickly received some gold/gun metal Aurora kits. These appear to be identical in design, quality, fit and finish to the Rockler Manhattan kits I've been using -- at half the price.
