Original thread is here.
OK everybody, let's do this! Welcome to the 2018 B&B Pen Pass around! This was originally the idea of @kevdogg329 but he had asked if I would help him in keeping track of things. The idea is to be able to try some pens that you would normally not have been able to try before. There are currently 20 pens in this passaround (some multiples), some ink cartridges and some ink samples (Yama-Budo, Diamine Apple Glory, Noodler Eel Blue and J. Herbin 1670 Blue Ocean). This pass around is for NIB related items only!
If you try pens out, it would be nice to share your thoughts with the rest of us. Since we all have different opinions, likes and dislikes, it should be educational!
Now, on with the information!
Here is the list of Pens:
Baoer 388
Esterbrook J
Hero 7022 x2
Hero 448
Hero 226
Hero 926 x2
Hero silver 212
Jinhao x750
Jinhao transparent 911 x2
Jinhao 911 Stainless
Pilot Metropolitan Retro Pop
Tasche FF-10T
TWSBI Eco
Wing Sung 3008
Wing Sung 6359
Desk set silver ballpoint
"Manuscript" fountain pen
And of course we can't do this without a teaser picture!

- Now, for some ground rules.
- Each person keeps the box for 1 week to try out the contents.
- After 1 week, you ship it off to the next person and then send a PM to the person and @Heckle with the tracking number.
- When trying pens out, make sure they are properly flushed of ink before sending on. If the pen has an ink cartridge in it, leave it in but place it in a small ziplock bag.
- Open to US only, sorry.
