So since I managed to get a significant raise at my workplace I decided to treat myself to a little something
a while back I found my dad's old pen collection - in it were a series of six Waterman pens and a mechanical pencil; one travel sized, one big fountain pen, the works. It was still in the box too, but it was just a blue brand case with basic faux-felt indent lining
so I decided, since I can afford it and since these pens hold sentimental value to me, that I'll get a nice display case to show them in
but here's the kicker: turns out a 6 pen case is nigh impossible to find
every pen case is aimed at the high cost extravagance of the deep and abyssal well that is pen collection enthusiasts, meaning it's a one-pen showpiece made out of rare mahogany or some shit or a 12-to-24 pen emporium
but extensive googling has resulted in success
in Singapore, a store called Peninasia; in it, a 6 pen leather case by a company called Wolf 1834 specializing in "luxury jewelry accessories, watch boxes, cases & watch winders". said leather case no longer in production; it is the last of a defunct run
and I nabbed it

and it got me thinking, ya'll got to have stories about neat purchases
so please share the cool things you buy and why you buy them
