In this video, I unbox my recent order from Appelboom ... purchased with a gift card from an anonymous pen friend. The experience was amazing ... and I did this video in order to thank whoever is responsible for this generous surprise gift card!
My order came in this week ... I had chosen 2 times that were back ordered but it will came really quickly and I'm very excited about picking up several fun inks, 2 pens, 2 nibs and 2 converters.
Here is a link to Appelboom's store ... they are in the Netherlands and Chicago:
appelboom.com
List of things I showed from my order:
1. J Herbin 1670 Emeraude of Chivor
2. Kaweco Brass Sport BB
3. Lamy replacement nibs, B
4. Kaweco Sport converters
5. Diamine 30 ml inks: Steel Blue, Deep Magenta, Hope Pink
6. Lamy Safari Light Rose B 2023 special edition
It's very fun to discover that some of my favorite ink and pen brands are prices lower thru Appelboom and what fun I had choosing things.
At the end of the video, I show you Manuel's talking clock which usually serenades us with the time during most of my videos.
Again, thank you so much to the person who arranged this amazing gift card. I'm still so stunned and very excited about writing with these pens and inks. Thank you so much! I really had no other way to thank the person other than a public video and so this is why I did a sort of unboxing in honor of the gift.
Thank you for watching!!!! Let's talk in the comments, where are some of your favorite pen shops and places to purchase supplies for the fountain pen hobby? In listing places I've ordered from I forgot to mention 2 others: Atlas and Lemur Ink. My two "home stores" are Vanness and Dromgoole's the closest to where I live.
