Great review I appreciate all your reviews. It's nice seeing reviews from someone who lives in an area I love. A pen I owned once, but alas is no longer with me, was a Parker 45.

Thanks David and Points of Distinction for an amazing giveaway! My parents gave me an amazing slimline Sheaffer with an inlaid (steel) nib, sometime in my teens. It developed a crack in the grip section, and I held onto it for years - only to toss it, maybe 12 months before I took up fountain pens as a hobby. If only I'd known it was possible to repair it!

The geometry lesson was pretty impressive, brought me back some memories of being dizzy listening to the math teacher. German fountain pens are my favorite pens.

An old Parker that belonged to my grandfather. Unfortunately I was really young when I received it when he passed and I believe I damaged the nib. We have moved twice since his passing and I have misplaced it somewhere along the way. Still on the lookout whenever I open a box in the attic or garage and would have it fixed in a heartbeat. The sentimental value is worth far more than the pen itself.

So far I haven't regretted letting go of any of the pens I've sold. Mostly because I really consider the reasons why I'm letting it go to someone else. Usually it's because they're not getting enough use from me. I'm a creature of habit, and tend to stick with what I like. So if a pen hasn't gotten good use within a selected time frame then it has to go. This system has worked splendidly for me so far.

I use fountain pens because of a problem with my ulna nerve if i bear down on a pen it puts me through a lot of pain.

I have moved like 6 times since then and have lost it.

The diplomat series of pens are pretty good, week made and good general purpose , steady pens to own. Great number of fantastic designs, and a reasonable price especially for the steel nibbed pens. I'm interested in seeing how the pen goes with the gold nib. It is a high added premium price added to the Excellence A, but it is probably worth waiting for, if the quality of the pen in its cheaper form extends to the gold nib variety. Interesting review though.

It was raw aluminum and got scratched, dinged up, and just generally abused as I used it for my whole senior year of college. I lost it around the time I graduated in 2014, and it was at that point that I started buying pens compulsively. I guess I've just been looking for that special pen that will replace that junky little "Dude." Of course, I would never buy such a pedestrian pen again-- gold nibs or nothing. =P

It all started back in the day when I was a young teen, when I was given a glossy black Montblanc 22 fountain pen with a hooded nib. Only its cap survived the vicissitudes of time. At university studying music composition, I needed fountain and technical (stylographic) pens to write music scores with, before the advent of computers doing everything. When they did, my old pens were stashed in boxes, stored away with the things of my past. Fast forward several decades to early last year when I quite unexpectedly got seriously bitten by the fountain pen bug. Beginning by accumulating pens both new and vintage, I quickly began to hone in on more focused collecting and even repair. Today I'm a little surprised to find some 75 fountain pens very much at home in my collection. Some of my old pens are still part of my daily rotation: the Sterling Parker 75 wedding pen and the Montblanc Noblesse I was gifted by my mother-in-law with my name engraved. That's not counting the 40 or so lower-tired beaters coming in the mail to restore and to give a new purpose to. But every once in a while I think about replacing that old Montblanc 22 I had not known the true value of in my youth.

Great review and a kind give-away. The pen I regret moving out of my collection is a black and gold Aurora Ipsilon. I randomly found it at an antique mall shortly after I got bit hard by the fountain pen bug. I didn't have a lot of money at the time, so when I saw the Ipsilon, I was thrilled. It was less than half the price of retail and it seems that the previous owner had inked it up once and then put it away when the converter was empty. I'm not sure if you've owned an Ipsilon (maybe one to think about for review purposes), but it has a nice springy steel nib and feels great in the hand when posted. The reason I sold it was to try to control my pen addiction -- I decided to limit myself to black and chrome pens only so that I wouldn't succumb to the "that's pretty" purchasing syndrome. Still regret selling it, though, and I may have to pick one up again sometime.

I have long been looking at Diplomat, as they seem to be right up my alley. I am really hoping to win this pen, but if I don't, it is awesome that you have a discount code available. As far a s a pen I regret selling: I had a very nice gunmetal Pilot Vanishing Point with a perfect Medium nib that I sold. I wanted to try some vintage pens, so I sold it to fund them.

I've never heard that noise called "singing" before. Somehow knowing that it is an unusual characteristic makes it seem almost desirable, even though it bothers my ears.

I didn't give it away, though; I believe I lost it after we were married. Sigh. It was a nice pen, too.
