Wow! That's quite a selection you're adding to the box! I hope you like the Legal Lapis. It's a great color, but I just don't use it often. Same goes for Diamine Steel Blue. No idea why I didn't use it more.

The last bottle of ink for the exchange arrived today. I decided to add to my takes.I will get the box out this week,
Where to next?

It might be best to choose someone geographically close, rather than whoever is "next in line." Although "next in line" might be fine with paying the shipping cost for ink to travel farther. Just thinking out loud, really.

At some point it's coming to Texas, right? I might like to jump in the game at that point.
I decided to pick Boris, next. Ink will be on its way on Sat.
looks like i got it coming to me next. any idea of whose after me?
That's your choice, Boris.
Just my personal opinion, but it might be a good idea to get a list of people who want to participate so that someone doesn't get overlooked, if this takes off and a lot of people want to be a part of it.

So, maybe the box should travel around to all of you West Coast guys first, then head down through TX and AL to FL. Hopefully, some east coast guys will join up and I can send it up through them to midwest and then the north/northwest guys? Or we could circle around the other way? Either way is fine with me, I'd just rather not get it from CA and then send it back to CA.
got the box sat guys! PM inbound mikeschu
Can we get some pictures up in this joint?
well there was two bottles that look like they couldnt handle anymore travelling so I opted to take those. Here is a pic of everything out of the box. I didnt open any of the other ones.
I'm going to guess one is omas blue (looked like it was brand new in box, but the box was soaked with ink, so i just tossed the box) The other looks like a private reserve bottle, but the label was completely soaked through and just came off as I cleaning the bottle and couldnt tell what it was, but it is a purple colored ink. My hands looks like what I assume james' normally looks like....hazmat needed.
I put in a private reserve ebony green and also a noodlers benevolent badger blue.

I remember tightening all the bottle lids really tight before shipping. The Omas was a nearly new bottle. The Private Reserve was Tanzite.
Could you remove me from the list please?
