Give t5he coffee blanks a miss the one I have I never used the smell was so strong meaning the encapsulation was crap and it disintegrated into a lot of frass later on. Love those clips.

Why does it cost $60 when they are $2.50 for one? I have bought from here in the past and don't recall the postage being that high .. Drop him a message he may have the answers .. :thumbs:

That is his standard postal charge for the UK, he does say that if it costs less then he will refund the difference, but who wants to layout $60 postage for low cost items.

Yes Peter, I spoke to Vince about them a while ago and they were recovered from a company that went bust and have been lying around for years and he said they need some restoration.

Yes I read that in the ad, they may be okay for a special.

Thanks for all your suggestions/comments.

I'm looking for about 4 or 5 to experiment with. Currently I'm butchering 8mm slimline clips which hides the ring but I want to see how a pen looks with the clip ring visible.

I have emailed Exotic blanks but had no response yet.

Cheers

Inky - I have some clips on their way - should be here in the next few days. Can't tell you about the ring diameters at the moment because I just ordered in a few from here and there to try and help people out. It's my intention to build up a selection of clips over the next few weeks, but I'll post the details of the one's already on their way as soon as they arrive.

Getting these right seems to be everyone's issue.
