I hope that this will not come across the wrong way, and I have spent quite a bit of time searching this site for the answer but.....
I am wondering what pen kits to add to my inventory. The list I have come up with from the searching on this site are: Cigar, Sierra, Jr. Statesman, bullet and Slimline. I found mixed results regarding Euro, and Baron. I looked at the group buy and found another list.
I live in the Northeast and plan on doing craft fairs, does anyone know if the real high end roller and fountain pens Jr. Gent., Emperor, Imperial, would be worth having in inventory.
With fountain pens is there a whole lingo that would need to be learned in order to be able to "sound intelligent" to have informed customers?
Also finishes, found to stay away from 24k and that Titanium is well liked but, gold, black, silver, combination there of, other?
I know that this is like asking which lathe or tools to buy,(or even worse trying to answer: "does this make me look fat"[:0][:0][:0][:0][:0]) everyone has their favorites and there is no one right answer. I may be opening up a HUGE can of worms but I am just overwhelmed with all the choices out there and don't have the funds to try one of each.
Thanks in advance for all your help and advice.
God Bless,
Eric
