Editing The Pen Addict 498/transcript (section)

== Travel Uncertainty ==


'''Myke Hurley:''' Well, there's no campaign for Atlanta. Who knows what the rest of the year may hold. Yeah, exactly. But there won't be a campaign for Atlanta.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' So yeah, it's even hard for me to talk about travel stuff right now just because it's literally minute to minute up in the air type of stuff. So I have no idea. But I'm planning on it if everything's okay. So who knows? Who knows? So that's the last big update. We did, I don't know, the first time we did almost a thousand orders. This time it's already been like almost half of that, which is about what I estimated once I put the inventory in. So yeah, a lot of stuff, a lot of shipping ahead of me again, which is cool. Like I'm ready to, you know, move on and we'll see what happens next. Once I get done with this, then we'll decide, you know, am I going to keep a couple of things one-off wise, you know, and sell them through the pen out of shop or what exactly is going to transpire. I don't have any concrete thoughts on that right now. So we'll take this first quarter of the year to get it all wound down and then we'll decide from there.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' What have we got, Brad? Two separate things. So we will get to our specials page in a minute. But Pen Chalet just launched their next Leonardo Memento Zero special editions with Brooks barrels.

'''Myke Hurley:''' Look at that. Wow.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' These look good. Yeah. I just noticed these Monday. I don't know how long they've been up. I think they just came up. So there's four different like barrel section colors with different cap and finial finishes. They're all black caps and finials, but some are gold, some are matte, some are shiny. So it's a really cool mix and match with the barrel colors kind of to feature, you know, the colors and match the colors of the barrel. So check those out.

'''Myke Hurley:''' I think I kind of like the black cap and black finial with this. I think it's like modernizing a classic style.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Yep. So I have one of their original. Pen Chalet did a batch early on with Leonardo. And it's kind of this turquoise barrel, but with a matte black and silver hardware cap and finial. And it's just it's fantastic. And I think it might even have a black nib. I'd have to look at it. But yeah, it's it's really cool. They do a great job. And these are some some neat barrel colors that are are just really cool.

'''Myke Hurley:''' They do have a they have a ruthenium nib on the Mother of Pearl edition. So they have different color nibs depending on the pen, too.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Yeah. Yeah. And then over on the specials page, they have a couple of Viscontis that you don't normally see that are highly discounted. The Visconti Opera demo. A couple of different colors in that. There's red velvet. Where's the other one? That was a pinkish kind of corally one.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Yeah. So they are available at a really exceptionally good price for you to check out. The Tabaldi N60 is another good quality pen. That's a really good discount. I like that. And if you like the Leonardo's and the Montegrappa's in that like $200 price range, $150 to $200, this Tabaldi fits right in there with that. So again, once again, really cool stuff. Got the Montegrappa Elmo 02 still in there. So that's really, really good pens. Really great prices. So go check out penshalet.com.
