BRAND NEW Limited Edition Unboxing (Pilot VP) | Goulet Q&A Ep. 327

In this episode, Brian answers how much ink the average pen feed holds, troubleshoots a burpy Traveler’s pen, spotlights the long-awaited 2025 Limited Edition Pilot Vanishing Point in Link Midnight, and more! TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 Intro 01:07 Feedback 06:12 New Stuff 12:38 Comp-nay Updates 13:54 1) How much ink does the average feed hold? 20:30 2) My Traveler’s Fountain Pen sat for a week, and when I used it, drops of ink fell from the nib. I opened it and found the cartridge loose. I couldn’t reseat it securely; a new cartridge pierced but also wouldn’t fit snugly. Any idea what’s going on or how to fix it? 28:13 3) UK customer here—I’d love your ink samples, but can’t get them. Could you consider a UK exception to the $200 minimum, perhaps via a limited-run sample set? 36:04 4) I’m filling out multi-part copy forms at work. Fountain pens need light pressure, but these forms need heavy pressure. Are certain nibs (flex/stiff, broad/EF) suitable, or should I use a rollerball instead? 45:43 Pen Spotlight – Pilot Vanishing Point Link Midnight (2025 LE) 56:19 Brian’s Adventures 01:00:54 Fun Fact LINKS TO PRODUCTS FEATURED: Esterbrook Blotter Paper: https://www.gouletpens.com/collections/esterbrook-accessories?sort_by=created-descending&filter.v.price.gte=&filter.v.price.lte= Monteverde Dakota Air Force Blue: https://www.gouletpens.com/collections/monteverde-dakota-pens?sort_by=created-descending&filter.v.price.gte=&filter.v.price.lte= Esterbrook Nooks: https://www.gouletpens.com/collections/esterbrook-pen-storage?sort_by=created-descending&filter.v.price.gte=&filter.v.price.lte= Wearingeul Narcissus & Goldmund Ink: https://www.gouletpens.com/products/wearingeul-narcissus-and-goldmund-30ml-bottled-ink Sailor Shikiori Ink Cartridges (8-pack): https://www.gouletpens.com/collections/sailor-shikiori-ink-collection?sort_by=created-descending&filter.p.product_type=Ink+Cartridges&filter.v.price.gte=&filter.v.price.lte= Traveler's Brass Pen: https://www.gouletpens.com/products/travelers-company-brass-fountain-pen SHOP at our store! https://www.gouletpens.com/ LEARN more on our blog! https://www.gouletpens.com/blogs/fountain-pen-blog SUBSCRIBE to our YouTube channel: http://bit.ly/GP-YTsubscribe ABOUT GOULET PENS: Brian & Rachel Goulet started The Goulet Pen Company in 2009 and you can see the evolution of our mom and pop into a full-blown company through this channel.
