So I am a total pen snob! I’m always on the hunt for a better pen! So…. Where did Ed find the LV pen? The company that you purchased refills from sells similar pens?(I know not LV pen but similar model?) Great video!
@dawnlovescouture264413 күн бұрын
Good to know Michelle! ❤️. I think Ed got the pen from a Japanese seller on eBay. It was a full set, box etc. I bought the refills at Art Brown International. They sell many prestigious brands. Levenger also has a very good selection. They don’t carry Louis Vuitton, but they both sell high end pens like Montegrappa, Lamy, Pelican. Art Brown sells ST Dupont. There are a couple of models similar to this pen, but they start at close to $500.

I would have been upset if I couldn't get the refill of the pen either. I have a pen I'd like to find a refill for so this was right on time! It's true they gatekeep because they want to let their VIC's get the goods first. But I hate that some of thoes VICs are resellers who get the items and resell them so they can get VIC status as LV. Some of them sell here on YT.

So yeah, Louis Vuitton paid (probably a ton of money) to SD DuPont to be able to slap their name on it and not reference the pen manufacturer name anywhere on the pamphlet. My husband worked in corporate design and installations and if a company/restaurant/hotel whatever wanted to put their name on something my husband built? Sure, just pay us a lot of money. 😊
