      If I can have it tuned in-person, I might do that, but I don't think I want to put it in the mail if I don't have to! Thanks Rachelle!

    Congratulations!!! If you want to get the nib tuned, I would suggest going to a pen show in person and getting a pro to fix it and adjust it to exactly how you write. I love that this is in memory of your granny... I feel you and feel the same way about my late grandma. ❤

    Beautiful. My birthday is in July so the Ruby-ish color is everything it should be. I would not send it to MB. My guy friend has sent two pens to them and they weren’t repaired and he ended up just using a nibmister to get it the way he wanted it. Even the associate at the store didn’t feel strongly knowledgeable. It’s a gorgeous pen and I’m sure granny would approve of your memento

    • @gingerpeachy
      @gingerpeachy  Месяц назад +1

      Thank you! And happy birthday month! Thank you for that feedback - at this point this pen might be older than some of MB's employees, lol. So I think any work I have done will be in-person with a trusted nibmeister! I think my Granny would've thought it's gorgeous. (Also thank you for knowing that it's a mEmento and not a mOmento. That's one of my pet peeve misspellings/mispronunciations!)
