Fountain Pen Return Policy

Fountain pens are special and once filled it is very difficult to resell the item when returned. When you purchase a fountain pen, it is recommended that you test drive it with dipping the nib in the ink. If you use the cartridges supplied with the pen or if you fill it with ink, then in order for us to resell, we have to send it to the manufacturer's repair facility. We want to make sure that all of our customers when they buy from us get a brand new pen which is not used. Hence, we will charge you a nominal restocking fee of 10% to accommodate these repair and shipping charges to manufacturer's repair facility. We then sell these pens in our outlet store. Please note that the restocking fee is only for fountain pen which is filled with the ink. If you have any questions please do contact us.
