I've done a bad, bad thing. Dual incoming

Once again Bryant at Chatterley Luxuries has made it impossible to say no. I've been kicking around the idea of a Visconti Watermark for a long time now and I got the bug to take a look again. Bryant had a good deal going on these before so I took another look. I was interested in a palladium stub but didn't see any available in the gold version of the Watermark. I sent an email asking about availability, and as it turns out, he had one in stock. 1 of 38 pens made. Boom! Ordered! Now here's where it all went wrong.......I made the mistake of asking if he could get a hold of my second grail pen. At least if it was available still as it's been out for several years and was limited. A Montegrappa extra otto in malachite green. He had the zebra and shiny lines version but no green malachite listed. Well it turns out he had one in stock, also at a great price! Second pen ordered! Now I get to live off of Ramen noodles for a while lol. Maybe I can splurge an heat up a hot pocket or two if I'm good next month! These are going to be really spectacular pens though. The extra Otto has a #8 gold nib! A number 8! That's huge!! I can't wait!

Congratulations. Great pens. I think Visconti has excellent value and they have some very nice designs.

Bryant is an enabler and you, my friend, are in serious trouble.

I highly recommend that you send us your pens for safe keeping and prepare to go through the withdrawals while it is easy. If you wait until you are where I am at you will be as hopeless as am I!

PM me and I will send you my address for the safe keeping. Looking forward to helping.....! I am sure others will chime in and be willing to help also.

Surely it's only bad if your wife finds out?
