Tom and I discuss the idea of having certified repair specialists for specific pen brands. Imagine if you have an issue with a Pelikan pen and, instead of going through warranty service, you can reach out to the retailer who will have a certified Pelikan repair specialist on staff to fix your pen. What do you think? Please let me know your thoughts and send an e-mail to [email protected]   If you'd like to shop for a new pen or try to get Tom fired, head over to our retail sponsor, Goldspot Pens at:https://goldspot.com/?aff=3Listen to the sponsorship section to get a discount code for 10% off throughout the Goldspot Pens store. *Excludes Sailor, Retro 51, Montblanc, Visconti, Edison Pen Co., Esterbrook, Narwhal, Leonardo, and TWSBI products.* Also, be sure to put #firetom in the order comments and you might get a special Pentertainment Podcast sticker with your order.   Coming soon to your favorite pen retailer (see above) is a pen case with more room for your precious writing instruments. Introducing the all-new Endless Companion 10 Adjustable Pen Pouch – the perfect accessory for every writing enthusiast! After many requests for a larger case size, Endless has delivered in an incredible fashion! The 10-pen case features a leather divider which also acts as the notebooks holder. This feature allows the length and width of the case to be virtually the same as the 5-pen but it is thicker to accommodate the 5 additional pens! As with the 5-pen companion, the 10-pen Companion comes with one dotted pocket Storyboard notebook! As always, the Companion features Endless’ innovative adjustable pen loops so you can fit almost any pen! In addition, the cartridge/ converter slot that you all know and love is also still included in the 10-pen Companion!
