Thread: last week pens

the pens look great trevor, love the huon.

cant have been to many shoppers with an eye for quality!

in 2 years of going to this market its the first time I sold less than 5 pen
It was a day of the 3 "Ps" ( pick them up ,put them down and off )

Nice pens !. I went to the Port Douglas markets yesterday, and spent about 45 minutes checking out one of the stall holders who makes and sells pens, plus lots other stuff he makes like Salt & pepper grinders, heaps of different knives and other wood workings. He must have had over 100 people go into his stall in the 45 min I was watching, and not one person walked out with anything. All his stuff was nice & well priced. I would say 85% of people walking around the VERY crowded markets were not carrying anything they had bought there. The bloke selling kids bamboo bird whistles for $5ea was doing a roaring trade, also the bloke selling food & icy cups was flat out, everyone else seemed to be doing a starve. Sign of the times purhaps ??

The pens look just fine. Some days a diamond, some days a stone.

Very nice.

Nice pens mate!!!

Looks like the good folk of Whyalla don't have a big enough appreciation of fine workmanship.

The good folks at Whyalla are mostly to tight fisted to spent money on anything but brooze, The only pens I sell here are the ones that My wife or daughter sell to their freinds or work mates.
I go to a market at Port Augusta once a month and to a small town called Cowell 6 times a year, Love to Queensland toustist that go there, great people who put their hands into the pocket and pull lots of cash

Nice, the Huon would be my favourite out of those.

Great looking group of Weiting Instruments.
Well done.
They will sell!
