No More Shopping Cart, and Happy Thanksgiving!
Hi Pen Fans!
A quick website update, along with some holiday wishes....
I have eliminated the Paypal shopping cart. Paypal has been making so many administrative changes this year that I just don't have time to alter my website everytime that they make a change.
Not only that, but 95% of my orders are custom. This means that hardly anyone uses the shopping cart, regardless.
So the way that the website will work now is that each pen page will have a slideshow showing variations and choices. Customers can also browse through more than 300 photos on my FlickR website.
From there, customers can email me requests.
I have also recently gained the ability to take credit cards.
On a lighter note, Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
My family and I have a lot to give thanks for.
About a year and a half ago, I lost my pharmaceuticals job. At that time, I honestly thought that this pen business would simply be something to keep me off of unemployment until I found another job that I hated. I never really thought that pens could be a living for me, but here I am...Edison is growing every month and we have never been happier!
What a difference a year makes!
I'll attach a recent family picture.










Great pic of the family.
You have no idea just how proud I am of you and all your efforts-you well deserve it.
Question:
Can any pen that you make be made into a BALLPOINT as well? I LOVE the Visconti Gel refills.
Can they fit your pens?
Advise.
Thanks.

I summed up the pens i got in the last year
The pens you've crafted for me are the best I've got in 2009 , much better than pens made by famous brands and other various LE . Thank you for your work !
I love your pens

Thanks for the comments, Ori!
great pic! Can't wait to see my pen this week. . I agree with the pay pal idea, I'd rather deal on a more personal level anyway. See you in Philadelphia. Hope yo had a great Thanksgiving. Regards, Bill
