Featuring a 0.3mm stainless steel nib and the patented 'Slip and Seal' mechanism, it guarantees smooth, consistent ink flow while preventing drying. Lightweight and refillable, this pen is a perfect blend of affordability, durability, and professional style—ideal for millennials who value both function and flair in their everyday writing tools.

## Description

The Platinum preppy fountain pen, designed in Japan features a colour translucent polycarbonate barrel corresponding to the colour of the ink. It's a refillable fountain pen with the famous 'slip and seal' Mechanism which means the cap is air tight and prevents the ink from drying out.

Review: Great all rounder - The Preppy punches way above it's weight. Smooth, consistent line width with great ink flow. Writes well normally and in reverse for thinner lines. Works well with both standard and pigmented ink and has an ingenious cap seal to avoid the nib drying out even for longer periods. Nice feedback in the 02/03 sizes but not scratchy. Amazing value and quality for such a reasonable price. Note that this uses platinum proprietary refills but you can get a converter, refill existing cartridges or even convert to an eyedropper.
Review: A lovely cheap fountain pen - The pen arrived yesterday, the usual fast desertcart delivery, in a cardboard envelope and the pen itself was in a loose plastic wrap. Unscrewing the pen you'll find the ink cartridge, hold the nib end upright and push the cartridge in until the little ballbearing clicks, reassemble the pen and hold vertical with the nib facing down...hold it in this position for a couple of minutes and then the ink has time to run into the nib. I am no expert in the field of fountain pens and I only own one other that was around £18, which I have been using for about a year. My older pen has a medium nib and writes beautifully. I saw a few reviews of this Platinum pen and decided to try it with the fine nib, as I said the ink does flow after a little preparation, it's plastic body means it is much lighter than a metal bodied pen...it is really made for kids after all! I wanted to try a fine nib but didn't want to spend a lot of money... I've used this for a day now and can honestly say it's a lovely pen, it's comfortable to hold, the ink flows with no problems and I've had no issues using on a variety of paper mediums. Four decades of Biro use and then texting certainly had a detrimental effect on my handwriting, so to start improving this I decided on going back to fountain pens. The beauty of fountain pens and cursive writing means you have to actually think about each letter in the word...it's very therapeutic indeed! I've ordered two more ink cartridges as I'll be using this pen for work To summarise....cheap, easy to set up, lovely to write with and I thoroughly recommend this pen.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Cheap and fairly cheerful
*by R***N on 2 March 2023*

The pen is the bic of fountain pens. Use it for everyday use and you'll be fine. Writes smoothly however, I'm not a black fountain ink fan. It's a workhorse pen. Worth a try for sure.
