I'm a little depressed.....
I got an email this morning from an undisclosed vendor that a very small amount of Visconti traveling inkpots with a carbon fiber sheeth where coming in. I would have been able to pick this up for about 2x the price of the discount rate of the regular inkpot. That's a deal considering it was only available with a Carbon dream Visconti at around 2k for the pen/set or so. Unfortunately I went to WORK today and missed out. That was only after psyching myself up to order one tonight just to find.........out.....of....stock!! I'm gutted!

Stay with it and you will find one. Part of the fun is the hunt.

I would not let it ruin my day. Give them a few months and you will be glad you were made to wait.

Looks like I only had to wait a couple days because my ship came in!! I've been monitoring EBay for Omas Vision demonstrators over the past few months and the pen I wanted finally showed up today. An Arte Italiana Vision in Liquid Green and ruthenium trim. I made a fair offer and the seller accepted Good timing there so I could use the funds for the inkwell to get another Omas! I'm up to 10 now Still have the blue Arte Italiana Vision out for repair that should hopefully return one day.
