    question about tablet nibs$$....

    Hello everyone I am planing on buying my first tablet a wacom bamboo capture.

    However there is a big drawback that is making me regret my decition of buying one on the future... pen nibs.


    I hear that they wear out very fast and unfortunately there aren't any places to get good replacements at my country mexico. I was lucky to find a store that sells tablets at all for starters!....

    My question is how much does a wacom tablet nib last?. Becuase I am seriosuly considering not buying a tablet i finding replacements will be such a pain

    p.d wacom does't ship to my country at all


    thank you for your time!

    check ebay for nibs;
    the felt ones wear out rather quickly
    the plastic ones can last a very long time - I think I've been using one for a few years now - that said it really depends how hard you press -

    thank you very much, while that answer gives me hope using ebay to shipt to mexico is problematic.

    The only online seller (not on ebay) willing to ship in mexico sold them for $40 dolars!
