my fountain pen collection

Platinum Meteor - it was $11 when I got mine but I believe US residents can get it for cheaper on Aliexpress. I think this uses the same mechanism as the Preppy, because the cap design prevents the ink from drying out, the nib is pretty smooth too! I recommend getting the F nib.

Muji polycarbonate - i think they used the same manufacturer as the Perpenep fountain pen because they look the exact same without the logo, which is pretty much designed by Platinum. If you can find this for cheap on Muji, get ittttttt

Pilot Kakuno - I love the aesthetic but not my favorite, especially after comparing to the Platinum Meteor, even when capped, the ink inside dries out super quick :(

Pilot 78g - pretty much the same as kakuno but with a more serious appearance

Ellington Pens - cool looking pen but not a fan of the ink that came with it LOL, I noticed it dries out pretty quick too if unused for too long

Fountain pens have surged in popularity, particularly among students and stationery enthusiasts. In this collection, I focus on beginner-friendly and budget-conscious choices that won't compromise on quality. The **Platinum Meteor** stands out with its smooth nib and designed cap, which prevents ink from drying out. It's praised not only for its price point but also for its performance. Additionally, the **Muji Polycarbonate** resembles other well-known pens but offers affordability and style; it is designed with usability in mind, making it a fantastic choice for everyday writing. The **Pilot Kakuno** is another aesthetically pleasing option, though it falls short in keeping ink fresh compared to the Platinum. Its unique design appeals to younger users, while the **Pilot 78g** provides a more sophisticated appearance, making it suitable for professional settings. Lastly, **Ellington Pens** offers a trendy design, although the quick-drying ink may not be ideal for everyone. All these recommendations showcase functionality and appeal, ensuring beginners enjoy their fountain pen experience.
