  • i recently ordered a pen online and it has cartridges can i use a converter and where can i get one and where can i buy ink?

  • @cxkozel You can search for 'fountain pen ink' and for 'ink converter' and you'll find hundreds of locations. Whether or not your pen will take a converter depends upon the pen. I would suggest contacting the online location that you purchased it from in order to find out.

  • @hisnibs1 k well i bought it on ebay and it is a schneider fountain pen.are most pens able to use a converter?

  • @cxkozel *Most* pens, yes. Even though you purchased it on eBay, you can still contact the seller and ask them if this particular Schneider pen takes a converter, and if so, which kind.

  • i've gotten hooked on fountain pens in the last year or two. your videos and tips have proven very helpful. thank you.

  • @hrehowsik Thanks very much! Somehow, I missed seeing your post until just now. My apologies.

see all

  • @cxkozel You should try the inks sold at His Nibs (the site belonging to the uploader)...great inks by the name of Private Reserve

  • @rustyshackleford1996 Apparently, according to the thread entitled 'New Cross Aventura in Staples' (search that string, which will take you to the Fountain Pen Network) one of the Cross converters will fit...but there's some controversy as to which one, as you'll see from the discussion. I'd suggest calling Cross directly.

  • Can you put a converter in a Cross Aventura fountain pen? I am sick of buying cartridges every week.

  • @JellyBellyMystic You'd better stay away from my Delta page on hisnibs then! :-)

  • I know, it feels like I "caught" something and now I am all of the place looking at what to buy. I can't seem to get enough...
