All Pilot Iroshizuku inks are currently $29.95 at Milligram, formerly Notemaker. These normally go for $45-$50.
Shipping is $9.90 or free if you spend over $99. They have recently opened a store in Melbourne CBD.
I don't know if this is a sale, a clearance or a permanent reduction in price. Get in quick!
My favourites are Ku-jaku, Yama-budo and Ami-iro.
Usually I wait for a friend or family to go to Japan to get me some, its ~$18-20 in Japan if you are patient and wait for someone to make a trip and bring you back some. Otherwise this is a fair price if you really want the inks right now.
Not to troll
Do we still use Ink pens ?
If yes where ? Courts ?
Lots of people still use fountain pens if they are writing a letter, greeting card, invitation etc.
It is nice.
I wish I wasn't left handed so I could.
I'm left handed and use all types of fountain pens without a problem. It depends on your grip - I changed mine so I don't drag my hand over what I've just written. Even if you do, you should be OK if you get a fine or extra-fine nib, a quick drying ink, and absorbent paper.
I use it at work :) using diamine inks though
Yes. Lots of people still write things.
And like anything, different people prefer different tools. I've got a dozen fountain pens, and I use them every day.
Yep, I use fountain pens for everything. They can be used anywhere you would use a normal ballpoint (except writing on carbon paper).

This isn't a bad price. I used to buy from Amazon US for around USD19 a bottle.
That's a great price - basically the same price as direct from Japan, but local and no worries about broken caps and leakage on the trip over.
For anyone thinking of jumping in, Kiri-Same and Tsuki-Yo are my picks :)
