I've been buying these from Whitcoulls for yonks. It's handy to be able to get them from Mighty Ape, but no cheaper. They are really good pens – I waste less time because now when I stuff something up I can just erase and rewrite, instead of messily crossing things out or worse, having to start again. The ink reservoir is perhaps a bit on the small size but not noticeably so. Why violet- Why not-
