Welcome to http://FountainPensForSale.net. The fountain pens for sale website has been created to help you to find fountain pens for sale, whether you are looking for cheap fountain pens, discount fountain pens or even vintage fountain pens.
I myself am a big fountain pen fan and have a small collection of fountain pens to which I would like to add in the coming years. And I spend quite a bit of time searching the internet for fountain pens for sale.
I probably spend too much time on the internet (at least my wife says so) but I love looking at the fountain pens on offer and reading about the specifications, feedback from users and trying to sniff out a bargain. My favourite fountain pens are Pelikan and Lamy pens but I am always open to other brands such as Parker, Sheaffer, Waterman, Mont Blanc, Rotring and others but in my opinion the best fountain pen is the Pelikan fountain pen.
However I accept that your favourite pen may be another brand so I will provide reviews and information about the other leading brands of fountain pen manufacturer to help you find the best deal in whatever pen you like.
Cheap Fountain Pens
Some fountain pen collectors look down their noses at cheap fountain pens and discount pens but I don’t because I recognise that starter fountain pens are ideal for the many people who might not have written with a fountain pen since they started school, or perhaps never experienced the joy of writing with a fountain pen at all.
And rest assured that there are some wonderful, cheap fountain pens from leading pen suppliers such as the Lamy ABC pen.
My intention for the fountain pens for sale site is to look at the full spectrum of pens ranging from the top of the range Mont Blanc fountain pen to the middle of the road Sheaffer pen to the Waterman to the Rotring, the traditional favourite of the American public-Parker pen, to discount fountain pens for kids and schools.
I sincerely hope that you enjoy http://FountainPensForSale.org and that you find it helpful in finding the right pen for you. This is a labor of love and if you have as much fun and enjoyment as I have had looking for fountain pens online and anticipating the package in the post, the unwrapping of the protective paper and box and the unveiling of my new fountain pen-well then you will have a lot of fun.
Please share your experiences in looking for fountain pens for sale, either online of offline, and if you have a fountain pen story that you think others will find helpful, send it in and I will publish it here on the site.

This Pilot Vanishing point fountain pen review is one that I am happy to write.
Because compared to more expensive fountain pens from such leading brands as Pelikan, Mont Blanc, Cross, Lamy, Waterman and others this pen is a real gem.
I rate it one of the most underrated fountain pens on the market and have no hesitation in recommending that you treat yourself with one-you will not regret it.
I received my Pilot vanishing point about 7 years ago and was not impressed initially. But 7 years of trouble free, leak free writing later I would not swop it for any other pen on the market.
What I Like About the Pilot Vanishing Point
What I really like about this pen is, in no particular order-
- The point or nib retracts fully inside the pen when not in use
- There is a huge range of custom nibs available for it
- I have had my pen for 7 years and it has never leaked
- It can be used equally well by both left and right handers which can not be said for other fountain pens
- The ink reservoir is very ample
- It is a very attractive pen
- The black version with rhodium accents is particularly nice
- It writes incredibly well and is really reliable and functional with a push o fthe button protruding or retracting the nib
- It is great value at less than $150 which is half the price of other high end pens
- It has a lovely smooth ink flow
- Very comfortable to hold, especially if you are writing for a period of time as I do
- It has been completely trouble free for me for 7 years.
As I write this post the Pilot Vanishing point retractable fountain pen, the black version with rhodium accents and medium nib (60242) is on sale at a 20% discount off the list price with a saving of $34.
You can check it out on Amazon here.
The Vanishing Point pen was originally launched in Japan in the 1960s and was called “Capless”. This pen disappeared in the 60s but reappeared as the Vanishing Point in the 70s and James Bond apparently sported a Namiki branded version of the Pilot Vanishing Point at one stage.
Of all the fountain pens that I have I would rate the Pilot Vanishing Point fountain pen to be the most underrated and surprising for it’s users.
