Ink Advent Calendar 2025

The Brands have been decided upon, the format remains to be finalized. But the details will remain the same as last year’s calendar.  24 4ml Samples of Ink, from a variety of Brands from three continents. Plus a full bottle of ink on the side for Christmas Day.

Last year’s photo for attention. This year may be presented in a different format.

New Brands will be utilized this year, although there may be some Brands used again, but no inks will be repeated.

Please note, the option of Shimmer or Non-Shimmer ink only refers to the full bottle for Christmas Day, the 24 inks from Dec. 1 to Dec 24 will be identical in all Calendars, and there will be a few shimmer inks in the mix. The final number of shimmer inks has yet to be determined, but last year it was 6 or 7 only.

Price is $150.00, including shipping. Choose local pickup if in Ontario, or shipping to add shipping charges, but I will just edit the invoice to the proper amount regardless. Shipping included is limited to North American addresses. International orders, are accepted, and a discounted S&H rate will be quoted. This is a pre-order and payment is required promptly to secure your Calendar, as there are only a limited number available.

Shipping is scheduled for late September/early October.  Please note, anything ordered at the time of ordering the Calendar will also ship at the same time. Add on Orders placed later in the year to ship with the Calendar also accepted.

CANADA POST AND SHIPPING

As the post is titled, a word on Shipping with the ongoing uncertainties involving Canada Post and their contract “negotiations” with the Postal Union. The vast majority of addresses in North America remain unaffected by the Postal disruption. Currently Canada Post is still functioning as usual, with the exception of a ban on overtime hours, but the reliability of their service until a new CBA is signed remains suspect.

We at penablers have been using Sendle, a courier aggregator for some time with very good results, and the only exception to shipping with them are Canada Post’s post office boxes.

Likewise, shipping to all North American addresses with the exception of PO Boxes should continue without disruption.

International orders are affected in so much as courier rates are showing as approximately 10% more than Tracked International Shipping quotes with Canada Post, but the service from any of the major courier companies does surpass that of Canada Post. Be advised that duties, taxes, and any possible brokerage fees remain the responsibility of the purchaser.

Please note, that there seems to be an increase in penablers emails ending up in Junk or Spam folders. Specifically emails including the invoice with payment instructions. I’m not sure what is triggering the email filters, but to ensure a timely completion of your order, add penablers.ca to your safe senders list, or whatever your operating system calls it. Or just check your Junk folder for our replies after having placed an order.

“Spring Cleaning” Special!

Buy any 6 issues of Pen World Magazine for $60 (up to a $12 Savings) and enjoy Free Shipping, a $20 value!

This is also the perfect opportunity to take advantage of the space remaining in the shipping box to purchase those little items such as Crabs, Ink Misers, Loupes, and Bulb Syringes, among other items that are inexpensive on their own, but do require Parcel Post shipping due to their dimensions.

Did you know that penablers does accept Credit Cards as well as Debit Cards, just add a note to your order when submitting and we can send out an invoice that can be paid with the card of your choosing. While e-transfer is still the preferred method of payment, these options as well as PayPal do exist.

Orders placed are only “submitted” for review. The wide range of products and associated different shipping costs make automating the entire process a nightmare. . Orders submitted for review are checked for stock and correct shipping tier selected, and then confirmed. Local pickup is St. Catharines, Ontario.
