PS I never hear anyone doing a stamp of someone’s full name on the front of a nice leather pen pouch. One advantage of a pouch is adding your name- the easier & faster someone can locate YOU or the right person on your behalf the more likely you’ll have lost items returned! If you ever attend big work or school events that’s the place to be distracted & lose something! Inside add your business card! Just a thought!
Goldspot Pens has the gifts, for all levels and they have some of the best price. As you see Tom explain these different gift size this will truly help you buy for that special someone.
How much has my worldview changed LOL This time last year in 2019 I would have NEVER willing spend $50.00 on a pen; However since I fell down the the Fountain pen (mostly TWSBI) hole, $50 seems reasonable LOL.
@@OscarDelgadilloAntar My new obsession started in April in the midst of my lock down. I have spent what some would say is to much on various TWSBIs, Kaweco items, Pentel, etc. But it makes me happy and I have been improving my handwriting. Thus a win-win!
Thank you so much! This helped me get my friend the perfect birthday gift! Probably the first time I bought someone a birthday gift in advance. It means a lot. Again, thank you so much!
Tom, you do a great job of explaining the possibilities for gifts. I'm jealous. I want one of those Vincent van Gogh's painting (print) that you have in the background. Even better it would have the TARDIS in flight.
Love the turquoise Lamy! I do have the metal Turquoise from a few years back with their matching ink! I didn’t know about the Lamy replacement nibs for many years using the yellow but I think it’s a shame not to mention stubs-get another color pen for the 2 sizes of stub nibs if you do kinda easy calligraphy or to do special looks for art, cards, etc! That’s what I’m getting for my gift this year!
For urban sketchers and artists the platinum Desk pen has a very fine nib and takes permanent Carbon black ink. Also the Moleskin watercolor journals are great for artists. Also the Twsbi GO is a great starter pen, fun to fill and easy to use. It even has a hole in the cap for a lanyard. The Opus 88 is not really a starter pen, but it has the ability to take a pilot parallel nib and that makes it a great sketching pen. I have taught myself to modify the pilot nibs to make some great marks.
Will you be doing a review/ display of the Sailor ProGear British Racing Green that you have exclusive to Goldspot? I've seen some ads on Facebook, and I'm really intrigued and would love to see a video of the pen.

Fun watch. Tom is a great host.
Thank you!

Thank you. Great suggestions. The Opus 88 will be in our next video gift guide for pens under $150.
I own three TWSBI Ecos. Stub nibs.
My favorite pens.
TWSBIs are awesome. They are my favorite as well.

For you, John, absolutely! Keep an eye on our channel later today, I think you'll like what you see.
