James Jean Pens

[Vieteddy]

Hey, I saw a board where people were talking about them, and I wanted some, so I looked on ebay and I found a seller

here's the link: http://cgi.ebay.com/SKB-sb-1000-0-5-...QQcmdZViewItem

...and I found a seller.

Indeed, though I wasn't looking at ebay when I found one.

It's not about the magic pen, folks...

[HunterKiller_]

Do they contain his sweat and semen?

Absolutely agreed.

Well, they're alot nicer than other ballpoints I've used for sketching. The RSVP ones from Pentel are a close 2nd in my opinion -- if you're after the nice non-globby narrow line.

The skb 1000's tend to slide around really nicely (imho) -- and don't feel as scratchy as other pens with the narrow stroke.

Unfortunately they're succeptable to the same curse of other ballpoint pens -- your friends will take them and not give them back.

i was hoping it was a pen that when turned upside down, a james jean picture's clothing comes off

[Mon Chat]

seconded. or maybe one with a little boat?

[TMG]

sweet, now i'll definitely be at least as good as him

[Portus]

Wait... people actually use James Jean name to sell those pens? Haha

[davi]

i almost want to bid $1, if shipping is $5, that's 10 pens for $6, that's just good pen buying.

Thanks for the link. I've never seen a 0.5mm pen. I use a Zebra Jimney Fine which is 0.7mm I believe.

I posted it because I noticed some people on this forum were also looking for it.

Ah, well fair enough then. My apologies.

[jrr]

haha i remember these pens! i still have a few they're actually really nice. a super nice and talented mu classmate got me a few after a trip back east. the line is so thin and really workable.

Here's a poorly designed website that's selling the sb-1000's in the U.S.

They are actually quite nice pens, and don't cost that much (most pens in AU are around $3 each!).

It would certainly explain a few things, though, if it were.

[Serpian]

Does anyone know where i can find Sargent brushes?????

[timpaatkins]

Anyone know if they are water soluble or not?

Just tried it, definitely aren't water soluble, didn't bleed at all.

Awesome, thanks mate! Ive been using the High tec cs for cafe sketching, very nice, but water soluble, so they screw up any attempt to slap some nice transparent color. Im on the Copics now, but the felt tips dry out and provide inadequate inkflow.

Wonder if they do overseas shipping.
