I think it's worth remembering that the pens we make are unique, particularly the wooden ones. A standard Parker jotter will set you back £8.99 in WH Smiths. Silver top in cheap alloy and black plastic bottom in plastic. Parker turn out millions of these and they are all exactly the same. Functional but hardly design classics. I love Neil's idea of selling a story but I would also emphasise the uniqueness of the product. Having said all that I don't sell my pens so what do I know

[QUOTE="Bluefoxy, post: 11601, member: 160"] I think it's worth remembering that the pens we make are unique, particularly the wooden ones. A standard Parker jotter will set you back £8.99 in WH Smiths. Silver top in cheap alloy and black plastic bottom in plastic. Parker turn out millions of these and they are all exactly the same. Functional but hardly design classics. I love Neil's idea of selling a story but I would also emphasise the uniqueness of the product. Having said all that I don't sell my pens so what do I know :winking: Ray [/QUOTE]
