willie2849Me. I bought four FPR Himalaya pens, all with Stub nibs, directly from Kevin all on the same order. Not counting the ones in my household that I bought for and/or have given to my fiancée, but just in/for my personal ‘fleet’ of fountain pens, I have:
  • 3⨉ FPR Himalaya pens with acrylic barrels and Stub nibs (with spare EF and Flex nibs for every single one of them)
  • 2⨉ Platinum #3776 Century pens with 14K gold SF nibs
  • 2⨉ Platinum #3776 Century kanazawa-haku pens (i.e, both the Fujin Raijin and the Shoryu-zu designs) with 14K gold F nibs
  • 2⨉ Platinum #3776 pens with (different coloured) briar wood bodies and 14K gold F nibs, and a third one (that is of yet another different colour) on its way here
  • 2⨉ Sailor koshu-inden pens with 14K gold H-MF nibs
  • 7⨉ Pilot Capless pens (in the classic Vanishing Point design, not the Decimo), including two of the raden designs, all with 18K gold F nibs
  • 3⨉ Rotring Initial pens, all with steel M nibs (and I have the three matching ballpoint pens, too)
  • 2⨉ Moonman M100 pens with F nibs, and a third one in the post
  • 4⨉ Pilot Cocoon (aka Pilot MR Metropolitan) pens with F nibs, and two Pilot MR Animal pens now with CM nibs
  • 3⨉ Pilot Prera demonstrators with F nibs
  • 3⨉ Platinum Balance with F nibs
  • 8⨉ Platinum Plaisir pens with 0.3 nibs
  • 3⨉ Delike Alpha pens with EF nibs, 3⨉ Delike New Moon 3, 4⨉ Delike Shepherd Boy, 2⨉ Delike Submarine, and 4⨉ these Delike ‘handmade’ pens with wooden barrels and EF nibs
  • 26⨉ Wing Sung 3008 pens with EF and F nibs, 4⨉ Wing Sung 9105 with EF nibs (and a fifth one in the post)
and that isn't everything. Oh, and seven Nemosine Singularity pens are on their way here, including six demonstrators on a single order.

charlizeworshipperYou appear to be an outlier, random person. Also, nice collection, however, blatant flex is blatant.

charlizeworshipperIt is my understanding that half of your list is of items of different colors. E. g., you are writing about "both the Fuijin Rajin and the Shoryu-zu designs". Thus most of your comment is totally irrelevant to the situation at hand where we are supposed to be interested in two pens that are _both_ of the same color _and_ the same nib. I too buy $3 WingSungs and Jinhaos by the case, to have spares as they break. But with something that is above $25, one needs to be a special kind of similar-items hoarder to stock identical pens. Given the fact that, as has been mentioned here in the comments multiple times, FPR constantly has sales and that pen case is also sometimes available as a freebie, this drop doesn't make a whole lot of sense. I'm not saying absolutely no one will jump on this drop, but the audience would have been much wider had there been a possibility to pick two differently-colored pens with different nibs.

keybersThe question willie2849 asked was, “Who wants to buy two pens really with the same nib size!”, not who would want to buy two identical pens, and not any other aspect of the situation at hand. I was pointing out that I bought plenty of pens with identical nibs, and not just “with the same nib size.”
