Also, you don't have to wait until forever.
Also, if there's a problem with the fountain pen, pen chalet is known for solving it to your satisfaction and could easily send you another one, massdrop can't help you in any other way other than refund when you pay for the return shipping, since they are not a retailer.
But I mean, it depends in what you are looking for, they both have their benefits. I don't consider this a good drop IMO
