I received an email from Goldspot Luxury Gifts to let me know what their weekly special is: The Visconti Rembrandt Red Calligraphy Set.
The set includes 1 Visconti Rembrandt Fountain Pen with two nibs: a 0.5mm steel italic and a 1.5mm steel italic with converters. Also included is a bottle of ink and a small package of blotting cloths. They claim the regular price is $295 and this weekly special is $120.
Seems too good to be true. I've tried the Rembrandt in my local pen shop and it's lovely. It was also $200 CAD. Even with shipping the Goldspot offer is less than that. I've always wanted a Visconti and I'm tempted. Thoughts? As a relative newbie to fountain pens I rely on the experts here. Thanks in advance for any and all advice.
