Farewell, Encore!

Hi Pen Fans!

Edison and Goulet have come to a difficult decision regarding the Encore. It will be discontinued. Whatever inventory left is currently with the Goulet’s, and is being sold at a discount. When these pens are gone, they are gone.

This was a bit of a difficult decision, as personally, the Encore is one of my favorite pens! The LE Encore is still my daily writer, and has been for the last year! Bottom line, the Encore was a fairly popular pen, but not as popular as the rest of the Production Line, and it didn’t sell with the volume required for us to keep it at a production pace.

The lower demand had a lot to do with price. The main driving factor behind this was the cast medallion in the finial. Although I feel that it’s gorgeous, they aren’t cheap to manufacture, and this drove the retail price higher than any other Production Line Pen.

So this decision is probably best, and then we will move onto some other projects that will also be unique and appealing in the near future, so stay tuned!

Please visit the Goulet Website for more information as well as a video from the Goulets regarding this decision.

Price of the pen will be marked down from $165 to $145. Click here to buy this pen before they are gone!

Pen Shows

What a DC Show!

Hi Pen Fans!

Well, the DC Pen Show was unbelievable!

The crowd at DC had not seen our Pneumatic Fillers or Pump Fillers yet, and they were a huge hit!

Speaking with other dealers and participants, we weren’t the only people to have a great show! Everyone confirmed our feelings that this was without a doubt one of the best DC Supershows ever!

Usually when we attend these shows, I have some time to run around taking some nice photos and put a slideshow up on the website as well as the social medias. But literally, I have no photos at all to share! I was only able to leave the table 5-6 times the entire weekend, and those times that I did leave the table, it was for a specific reason, and not for fun photos!

So my apologies! I realize that a lot of you enjoy my photo coverage of the pen shows, but there just wasn’t any time at all!

We are definitely exhausted, but for those of you who are expecting an email from me, I will return that email today or tomorrow morning.

And there is one photo worth sharing, but it is not one that I took! This is a photo of my wife and at our display. Thanks to Thomas H. for sharing!
