Stationery Review 59: Pilot Metropolitan Gel Ink Roller Ball Pen for ZAR 30

Hi Friends,

My favourite stationery shop is the CNA, Sandton City as they have some of the best sales whenever there is a change of season. I have bought so many things and items that I don't even use or want just because their price is reduced to more than 50% as compared to the new item. I generally give it to my kids or use it later. I bought this Pilot Gel Ink Roller Ball Pen which I thought to be a Ball Point Pen 1.0 Medium Tip for only ZAR 30 as compared to the original price of ZAR 250 or more. Check the same out and let me know what you think about it!

I have kept the same in the same box it came in. All the pens in the Pilot MR series or Mid Range come in these boxes. They are really metallic pens available in multiple colours and come in fountain pens, ball pens and roller pens. You can buy them from Sandton Stationery & Print for ZAR 200 each and they are really great in your hands and on paper as well. They write really smoothly and look really pretty. They have a nice weight and well-balanced design where you can write for hours.

Stationery Review 58: Parker IM Premium Rollerball Pen (Brown) for ZAR 500

Hi Friends,

I have been a fan of Stationery items and Pens and when it comes to brands like Parker, I have bought numerous pens in all shapes and sizes from them. Here is a look at one of the pens from the Parker IM Premium Pens series. This is a 0.5mm rollerball pen and I bought it for its gift package it came with a beautiful white diary from Onedayonly online retailer. Enjoy and subscribe to my channel.

Parker IM Premium Rollerball Pen for ZAR 500

I used the white diary as my daily journal and used it for some months. This pen has a really nice texture to the same and I have been using the same off and on. It's still in my inventory and I have kept it safe amongst all the expensive pens I have owned over the years. I think I bought it for around ZAR 500 from the OnedayOnly sale whereas the actual price of the pen was more.

This pen is heavier as the body of the same is metallic and it can be refilled with a new roller ball refill in the nib size of your choice. I will definitely go for the Extra fine tip once the original refill gets finished.

Stationery Review 57: Parker Jotter Ball Point Pen for ZAR 99

Hi Friends,

I have always loved the Parker Pens and Jotter has been on my list of items to own since the start. I have owned it at various points in my life but for many years this is the only one I have. I have not used it at all and is in mint condition only for the video to be shot. I totally loved the click sound but when someone else is making it, it's very irritating.

Check out the same as this is also medium tip 1.0 mm which I don't like much but don't know if there is any other variation available in the Parker Ballpoint pens. I bought it from Onedayonly online sale but now the pen is available at various stores for ZAR 99 each whereas the one-day only charges a courier fee of around ZAR60 on top of the price of the pen.

This pen now comes in so many colours that there is a special package as well where you get 36 Parker Jotter pens in all different body colours. I can review the same if Parker Pen UK sends me the same.

Stationery Review 56: Pilot Metropolitan Fountain Pen (M) Nib for ZAR 200

Hi Friends,

I have been trying to buy this Pilot Range of Fountain Pens for several months now. I even ordered one from Amazon.in for the Jungle Range which has Python, Crocodile, White Tiger etc in the centre part of the design of the body. I went to Sandton City on the weekend and just thought of checking the price of the Pilot Fountain Pens available at the store. They told me that the normal price is R380 and now it's available at only R200. I immediately thought of buying one but the confusion was in the various body colours it's available in. I totally loved all the colours and finally decided on the Red/Rust one as it matched my business card design.

Pilot MR Range of Fountain Pens is the cheapest at Sandton Stationery & Print shop in Sandton City, Johannesburg, South Africa where you can buy all the colours for ZAR 200 each. I have done so and it's a really great fountain pen. The pen writes smoothly and comes with a silicon-type converter or an ink cartridge. They even replaced my silicon converter after it got twisted due to some reason unknown to me. At this price, this is a perfect gift for your teenage kids I also gifted one to my daughter and want to gift it to others as well who love writing with the fountain pens.

This is the perfect pen to start your fountain pen journey just like I did in my adult life after a gap of many years.

Stationery Review 55: Amazon Basics Fountain Pen (F) Metal for ZAR 125

Hi Friends,

I bought this Amazon Basics Fountain Pen in fine-tip Nib. I love anything less than 0.5mm pen tips and this is definitely one which is really nice. The fountain pen body is made of metal as it's heavier than a plastic one. This is really a great fountain pen for around R125 on amazon.in website. I also looked at other pens from the Pilot Fountain Pen series and ordered one for around R300 too but it never arrived and I cancelled the order. This pen comes with 3 ink cartridges and no ink converter. I hope I will be able to use Parker ink converters at least I will try to.

It works well with the ink it comes with, but the pen is jammed with any other ink. I have tried different inks but am still looking for the right one for this pen. I have stopped using the same. I will have to sell the same for sure.
