Where it fits in: The Platinum Preppy is arguably the best bang-for-your-buck starter fountain pen in the world. For less than the price of a fast food meal, absolutely anyone can get into the exciting world of fountain pens. I personally know people who own $5,000 fountain pens and still choose to daily carry a Platinum Preppy (unfortunately, they’re not me). Let that sink in for a moment: this thing is an unbelievable value and I’m proud to carry it at Bottle & Plume. Advice: If you’re going to be spending a lot of time writing on cheap paper (college notebooks, copy paper, etc.) then you’ll have a better time with a nib on this fountain pen. If you’re largely in control of the paper you write on, and can afford good fountain-pen friendly paper, which happens to be the only kind we sell at Bottle & Plume, then a nib will glide across the paper a bit more smoothly, and display the properties of your fountain pen ink (sheen, shade, shimmer) better. Product Description: The Platinum Preppy is one of the most popular entry-level fountain pens in the world—and for good reason. Affordable, durable, and surprisingly smooth, the Preppy offers an easy and accessible way to experience the joy of writing with a fountain pen. The Preppy features a clear body, stainless steel nib, and Platinum’s innovative "Slip & Seal" cap that keeps ink from drying out for up to a year. It even comes with an ink cartridge that’s the same color as the pen you choose! Whether you’re a student, a journaler, or a casual fountain pen writer, the Preppy is the ideal everyday fountain pen that proves quality doesn't have to come at a high price. Colorful. Functional. Fun. The Preppy is where the fountain pen journey begins.
