My Shipping and Payment address is:
My Favorite Pen
20781 Millers Church Road
Hagerstown, MD 21742
USA
When packing your pens for
shipping, please follow these simple steps to insure their safe arrival.
-
Be sure the pen is
completely empty and flushed of all ink. If I have to clean ink out of
the pen there is an additional $5.00 charge.
-
Wrap your pens individually
in bubble wrap. I find a 7" x 8" piece of bubble wrap, rolled around the
pen and sealed with tape, is adequate.
-
Include a note with your
return address and a contact phone number, describing your pens'
problems. Should you send 2 pens of the same color and kind, please
place a slip of paper under the clip noting which is "Pen 1" and which
is "Pen 2."
Also include a writing sample for each pen sent and let me know how wet
you want the pen to write on a scale of 10 with 10 being a flood.
As mentioned I do not do nib work, but will try to tweak your nib to the
desired wetness if possible.
-
If there is unfilled space
in the box, use shredded paper, packing peanuts, or newspaper to prevent
your pens from shifting during their trip.
-
Have your Post Office stamp
the box "Fragile."
-
If you plan to address your
package with a fountain pen, please place a piece of clear tape over the
address label to prevent smearing.
Disclaimer:
Due to the fragile nature of vintage pens, breakage sometimes occurs. This
is a risk we accept when using and restoring vintage pens. Unseen cracks,
brittle hard rubber, and weak celluloid are dangers we face as a restorer
and you face as an end user. It is our goal to avoid damage at all costs.
If we feel that the pen you have sent for repair is in such a state that
it may break, we will not take the chance of ruining your writing
instrument and will contact you for instructions. We are not responsible
for damage in shipping or damage that may occur from unseen faults in the
pen. As stated, we will fully examine every pen before starting
restoration, but some faults just can not be seen. |
