Want to try Diamine Ink? PIF

[oc_in_fw]

Recently, member Mendel sent me samples of Diamine Denim, Sargasso Sea, and Bilberry. I have done reviews of each, decided which I like, and returned the rest to the sample bottles. I have a sample bottles of each, with more than enough to fill a converter at least once. If you would like to try these inks, just say I am in. If you wish, please post your ink inventories- relative newbies will be given a double chance. I will let this go until Saturday, 04MAY, then pick a winner via random number generator.

******PIF is now closed- winner announced on page 3

A big thanks to Mendel for making this PIF possible

Nice PIF, Owen! I would be open to try some more Diamine, they all look fantastic in your reviews. I currently only have used Diamine Grey and Presidential Blue. No hard feelings if you would like to exclude stews (especially James )

Off the top of my head, my ink stash of bottles is:
5OS, BBB, PR Midnight Blues, J. Herbin Perle Noir, Lamy Blue, Quink Black, Skrip Red, Pelikan Brilliant Green. Have some samples lying around, can't remember all the colors.

I have never tried Diamine. I own one bottle of private reserve and then one noodler's sampler from Goulet (7 vials). I also have a case of Private Reserve Sherwood Green Cartridges. My dad has a bottle of Quink somewhere in his desk which I steal on occasion. Otherwise that's it and would love to try some ink out

I'm in! in bottles I have Noodler's 5oclock shadow, heart of darkness and Baystate blue. I also have several sample vials from the ink drop membership.

I'm in! All of the inks I have on hand are Noodler's. I have some #41 Brown, Navajo Turquoise, Texas Pecan, and Hellfire. Thanks for the PIF! I've never tried any Diamine inks.

 

[Craig9802]

I'm in! All I have on hand at the moment are some Pelikan Brilliant Brown and some blue cartridges for my Pilot/Namiki V.P. I've only tried Waterman Havana and blue tones in the past, so I'd love to test-drive some others.

I'm in! thanks for being generous!

I'm in! I just got my first FP and have no ink. I only got a couple carts just in case I didn't like it (like that would happen)

What fountain pen do you have?

 

[cody6766]

I'm in! I just ordered my first pens the other day and can't wait to have them shipped out to my deployed location. I just got some Noodlers black and red to try, but more exposure would be really cool.

I'd like to try those Diamine inks especially Sargasso Sea and Denim. I have some other Diamine inks that I like a lot -- Syrah, Oxblood, Sherwood Green. No blues though.

My other inks include Aurora Blue, Waterman Florida Blue, Waterman Havana Brown, Private Reserve Blue Suede, Private Reserve Chocolat, J. Herbin Lie de The, J. Herbin Terre de Feu, Noodler's Galileo Manuscript Brown.

Thanks!

 

[oc_in_fw]

Thanks for the interest- keep them coming.

I have Denim and Sargasso sea. I love the Sargasso, but still haven't inked up the Denim. Great PIF for those on the fence about ink purchases. I'm not in, but this is mighty nice of you Owen.

In fact, whatever pen runs dry next will get the Denim.

 

[one cut]

Oh yes please, I'm not sure what inks I have, It should be one or two bottles.

 

[rider4life]

I'm definitely in for this! I'll need to break out my vintage Sheaffer though now that my Faber is broked-ed-ed-ed.

I have a glorious collection of inks, somehow I've managed to never try Diamine though. My collection is:

Parker Quink Black
Sheaffer Skrip Black
Sailor Blue-Black








I'm so ashamed...

Cheers,

M.

I'm in. I am pretty new to foutain pens but I have a few cheap Parkers (IM and Vector) but just received a Lamy Safari yesterday. I've been mostly using carts but have J. Herbin Eclat de Saphir in the IM's converter. I would love to try Diamine inks.

I was trying to stay away but after reading your reviews, which are very nice, I just can't. So I'm in.

I have three bottles now: PR Lake Placid Blue, J Herbin Vert Resera and Vert Reseda. I also have a few samples from rickboone1 that I like better than any bottle I have.

So nice of you to say, thank you. My reviews worry me, as I don't think I do the inks justice.
