How Do You Suggest Buying A Pen Online Without Trying It Out First? - Q&A Slices
www.GouletPens.com
My Conklin pen is the most expensive pen that I own and it is the worst writing pen that I own. I just replaced the nib and it does not write much better. My Lamy Vista (very inexpensive) is as good as any other pen that i have tried. How do you suggest buying a pen online, especially when you get to the top end, without trying it out first?
I would reach out to whomever sold you the pen, get it troubleshooted/inspected/exchanged
if it’s us, email info@gouletpens.com or returns@gouletpens.com
I don’t know the specifics of your situation to comment on what’s going on
Shopping online is tough for any type of tool like this
Online, pens sell for 20% less than MSRP to compensate for ‘risk’ of buying without holding it first
Educate yourself as much as possible
Read reviews, on the product pages as well as blogger’s
Find a retailer you trust and build a relationship there if you buy regularly
We have a restocking fee for inked up/used pens, but not for new-condition pens
You can hold them, dry test them, etc as long as they’re in new condition we’ll take them back no charge
Look at Nib Nook for writing samples
Use Pen Plaza to compare sizes
Participate in discussions in forums for advice
This is a big barrier to cross and I want to help bridge this gap as much as possible
