21 - The Question of Worth - a podcast by Fountain Pens Oceania
from 2018-06-07T20:26:05
The hosts delve deep into their souls and their wallets to examine the question of worth. What do we mean when we say a pen is “worth it”? What is our ceiling when it comes to spending money on a fountain pen? And isn’t it all subjective anyway?
